In 1953, Ian Fleming's literary sensation James Bond emerged onto
the world's stage. Nearly seven decades later, he has become a
multi-billion-pound film franchise, now equipped with all the
gizmos of the modern world. Yet Fleming's creation, who battled his
way through the fourteen novels from 1953 to 1966, was a maverick -
a man out of place. Bond even admits it, wishing he was back in the
real war ... the Second World War. Indeed, the thread of the Second
World War runs through the whole of the Bond series, and many were
inspired by the real events and people Fleming came across during
his time in Naval Intelligence. In Ian Fleming's War, Mark Simmons
explores these remarkable similarities, from Fleming's scheme to
capture a German naval codebook that appears in Thunderball as Plan
Omega, to the exploits of 30 Assault Unit, the commando team he
helped to create, which inspired Moonraker.
