Seller's Description
FOR YOUR EYES ONLY: IAN FLEMING + JAMES BOND by Ben Macintyre.
Accompanying the major exhibition at the Imperial War Museum!
One morning in february 1952, in a holiday hideaway on the island of Jamaica, a middle-aged British journalist sat down at his desk and set about creating a fictional secret agent, a character that would go on to become one of the most successful, enduring and lucrative creations in literature...
Fleming experienced at first hand almost every aspect of the Bond legend: harsh boarding school upbringing and lack of father figure, engagement with a lifetime's cast of extraordinary characters, and an obsession with plots and gadgets, Working in naval intelligence during the Second World War and afterwards as a journalist, he saw at first hand the scheming and machinations of nations in conflict, and gained insight into that famous background to all Bond books: the Cold War.
A hardback published in 2008 by Bloomsbury (£20.00 r.r.p)
