Everyone is a BOND fan - but how many of us truly know Ian Fleming's brilliant original creation?This is the irresistible and definitive illustrated passport to his life and times.
For over half a century the BOND novels have entertained millions around the world.But no book has used the Fleming archive to explore the three-dimensional world of this quintessential secret agent,revealing what inspired
it,and who inspired him.Complete,authoritative and entertaining,it will take you on a journey through myth and reality,from Moscow to Mayfair,the bedroom to the war-room,the casino to the villain's lair.
Sources include the 007 novels and stories as well as Fleming's non-fiction writing,rare research notes,letters,annotated manuscripts and ephemera from his files.The illustrations include facsimiles of many of these artefacts,
together with contemporary images that bring new understanding to the classic texts.It is a book that recaptures the glamour of an age,and brings new insight into one of the world's most sophisticated - and thrilling -literary heroes.
