註釋
In Turbans and Traders, Barbara-Sue White takes readers inside the intriguing lives of Hong Kong's Indians. She describes the unique mix of South Asian tradition and adaptation to Hong Kong culture that shapes their present and recounts their important role in the colony's business, military, political, and cultural life from its earliest days. Profiles of individuals and institutions prominent in the local Indian communities are interspersed throughout the book, while a selection of photographs from the 150 years of Indian presence in Hong Kong illustrates the discussion.
