《從荒岩到東方之珠:形塑香港的旅遊文化史 

本書是首部有關香港旅遊文化史的專書,旨在探討自開埠至九七回歸,香港作為旅行目的地的歷史發展、文化與經濟相關的行為。從殖民地早期至二戰,旅行的各種發展形式如長途、短途、本地遊、僑居和遷移等,加強了西方人和中國人之間的社會和文化交流。戰後,香港旅遊的進一步推廣及產業化,除了帶動經濟發展外,亦有助殖民地政府為香港樹立國際現代化的城市面貌,加強了香港人的本土化和身份認同。香港人以文物、商業成就和東西方文化的並列,建構歷史及重拾「正面」記憶。業界推廣中國傳統文化特色的旅遊活動,使城市的文化走向本土發展,進一步讓香港獲得國際認可,帶動了以中西文化並存的都會發展歷程。
