A riveting look into the world of James Bond and his creator,
published on the centenary of Ian Fleming's birth.
In "For Your Eyes Only," Ben Macintyre reveals where the world of
Ian Fleming ends and the world of James Bond begins. Macintyre
looks at the actual people on whom the writer based his fictional
creations--friends, colleagues, lovers, and, of course, the
notorious villains. Exploring the tradition of spy fiction past and
present, with specific attention to the Cold War, Macintyre
explains how Bond was based on the realities--and fantasies--of
Fleming's life as a wartime spymaster and peacetime bon
vivant.
Stylishly illustrated, "For Your Eyes Only" features a collector's
dream of gadgets, costumes, props, and storyboards from the
films--Daniel Craig's bloodstained shirt from Casino Royale, the
Aston Martin DB5, complete with weaponry--as well as memorabilia
from Fleming's personal archive: his smoking jacket, the manuscript
for "Casino Royale," his golden typewriter, his guns, and much
more.
