The Song Book of Quong Lee of Limehouse is a collection of songs and verses written by Thomas Burke, originally published in 1920. The book is centered around the character of Quong Lee, a Chinese immigrant living in London's Limehouse district in the early 20th century. Through his songs and poems, Quong Lee shares his experiences of life in Limehouse, including the struggles of immigrants in a foreign land, the joys and sorrows of love, and the beauty of nature. The book provides a unique insight into the cultural and social dynamics of Limehouse at the time, as well as the experiences of Chinese immigrants in London. The Song Book of Quong Lee of Limehouse is a poignant and lyrical portrayal of a bygone era, and a testament to the power of music and poetry to transcend cultural boundaries.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
