在高樓大廈林立之間的中環至半山自動扶手電梯系統,其原來的設計雖被視作便利該地區的市民出入,以紓緩區內日見嚴重的交通擠塞的輔助性「交通工具」,卻因設計別具特色,扶手電梯沿途所經過的一帶遍佈歷史建築,成為香港島其中一道迷人的風景線。本書匯聚多位大學學者和歷史專家編纂的11篇文章,以中上環半山電梯為中軸,記錄了早期半山電梯沿途一帶的大街小巷與各式建築物、傳奇人物的足跡故事,以及他們對社區以至整個社會、宗教、文化發展帶來的影響,重塑香港早期的政治、經濟發展與香港民生狀況等社會歷史的面貌。本書亦為不同時期的香港發展補充了相當重要的歷史資料,透視了香港自開埠以來的國際商貿及文化的影響力,窺探小城如何由小漁村發展成華洋薈萃、多元包容和自由開放的國際大都會。
