Tai-Pan by James Clavell<br />
J<br />
ames Clavell (10 October 1921 – 6 September 1994), born<br />
Charles Edmund Dumaresq Clavell, was a British (and later naturalized<br />
American) novelist, screenwriter, director, and World War II veteran<br />
and prisoner of war. Clavell is best known as a writer for his The<br />
Asian Saga series of novels and their televised adaptations. Clavell<br />
also authored screenplays, such as The Great Escape (1963) and To<br />
Sir, with Love (1967). Clavell wrote science fiction as well, including<br />
an episode of the early sci-fi TV series Men into Space in 1959, titled<br />
“First Woman on the Moon”, as well as the film script for the original<br />
(1958) version of the sci-fi/horror film The Fly, starring Vincent Price.<br />
Tai-Pan is a 1966 novel about European and American traders who<br />
move into Hong Kong in 1842 following the end of the First Opium War.<br />
It is the second book in Clavell’s “Asian Saga”. The name Asian Saga<br />
was first applied to the series after Shōgun had been published. The<br />
purpose of the Asian Saga was, according to Clavell—descendant of a<br />
family long in service to the British Empire, and who was a prisoner of<br />
war of the Japanese during the Second World War—to tell “the story of<br />
the Anglo-Saxon in Asia.”<br />
He spent three years researching and writing Shōgun (1975), about<br />
an Englishman who becomes a samurai in feudal Japan. It was<br />
another massive best seller. Clavell was heavily involved in the 1980<br />
mini-series which achieved huge ratings.<br />
In the late 1970s he spent three years researching and writing his<br />
fourth novel, Noble House (1981), set in Hong Kong in 1963. It was<br />
another best seller and was turned into a mini series in 1986.<br />
