The definitive history of the flamboyant life of Ian Fleming and
his most famous creation, James Bond. This new biography of Ian
Fleming presents a fresh and illuminating portrayal of the iconic
creator of James Bond. Oliver Buckton provides the first in-depth
exploration of the entire process of Ian Fleming's writing-from
initial conception, through composition, to his involvement in the
innovative publication methods of his books. He also investigates
the vital impact of Fleming's work in naval intelligence during
World War Two on his later writings, especially the wartime
operations he planned and executed and how they drove the plots of
the James Bond novels. Buckton considers the vital role of wartime
deception, disinformation, and propaganda in shaping Fleming's
later techniques and imaginative creations. Offering a radically
new view of Fleming's relationships with women, Buckton traces the
role of strong, independent, and intelligent women such as Maud
Russell, Phyllis Bottome, and his wife, Ann, on Fleming's portrayal
of female characters. The book concludes with a thorough analysis
of the James Bond films from Eon productions, and their influence
in promoting, while also distorting, the public's recognition of
Fleming's writing.
