Just realized I still have some photos from the various books on KWC hosted. Try abebooks.com if you want to buy them. So, for anyone interested (Click on the thumbnails for larger images):

City of Darkness - ISBN: 1873200137

This is by far the best book on the place, lots of amazing photos and some very interesting interviews with the residents.
















Kowloon Walled City - ISBN:4582277365

Japanese book of black and white photography. Also very good, and the text is in both English and Japanese. Includes shots of the demolition. Might be a little hard to find.












Crack in the Wall - ISBN:0340488077

This book is quite cheap, but more about Jackie Pullinger bringing Jesus to crack addicts living in and around the walled city than the place itself. Uninspired photos, and pretty uninteresting text.
