======================
Hi Dave,

 DD> Speaking chronologically Shogun was the first of the series - even
 DD> though the semi-autobiographical King Rat was the first published. Tai
 DD> Pan was the second in the time line followed by Gai Jin, then King

 RH> IIRC, Gai Jin takes place in the 1800s, Tai Pan in the late 1950s/early
 RH> 60s.

 DD> The scope of Tai Pan covers the trading houses (especially the British
 DD> and American) from (the end of the first Opium War) before the
 DD> founding of Hong Kong as a British Crown Colony as a spoil of war in
 DD> 1842 to the death of Dirk Struan. Gai Jin, I believe, runs somewhat
 DD> after the death of the original "Tai Pan of the Noble House". I'll
 DD> have to look that up online to check myself - as the books are packed
 DD> away in the back of the small bedroom.

 DD> LATER: Gai Jin's timeline (it's the last Clavell book to be published
 DD> - just a year before he snuffed it) begins in 1862 ... ten years after
 DD> Commodore Perry forced the opening of trade with the Western nations.

 DD> Rat, Noble House and finally Whirlwind (set in Iran before 1980) ...
 DD> all with cross pollination of characters.

 DD> Noble House was published in 1981 and set in Hong Kong in 1963.

Which makes it fun, trying to keep track of time/story lines when books
are written so out of sequence. Tom Clancy did some of that, but most of
his followed right along in succession. One book opened up right where
the previous one ended.


 RH> I'm going to re-read all of them in order, to get everything straight.
 RH> First time thru I read them as I got them, very haphazard order to it
 RH> but I did read Shogun first.

 DD> I read Tai-Pan first - then moved on to King Rat - as I had seen the
 DD> movie and learned that it was a Clavell yarn - which turns out to be
 DD> semi-autobiographical.

 DD> There were two mini-series from these books and a number of movies.

 RH> Of which I've not seen any.

 DD> I saw them both - when presented originally. Now I'd likely give them
 DD> a miss and have little or no interest in re-watching them. There was a
 DD> movie made of Tai Pan in 1986, loosely based on the novel. It was
 DD> filmed under communist Chinese censorship, some portions of Clavell's
 DD> story were considered too offensive to be filmed as written and
 DD> considerable changes were made. I gave it a clean miss - especially as
 DD> they didn't use Steve McQueen to play Dirk Struan as was original
 DD> plan.

Either we didn't get the channels or weren't aware it was on or didn't
know it was a movie or didn't have the money to go but we haven't seen
any movies or mini series.

 DD>       Title: Lightning McQueen's Balsamic Motor Oil Chicken
 DD>  Categories: Poultry, Herbs, Citrus
 DD>       Yield: 8 servings

Interesting, wonder what the other characters can dish up. Mater's fried
green maters?
