It does not include information contained in the Bond films or look-alike books. This book is produced for all James Bond enthusiasts who want to learn more and to encourage enthusiasts to read the original James Bond books as written by Fleming. This book is where you will find the fascinating details about James Bond and Casino Royale, his world, his guns, enemies, friends and lots more.
Fleming provides a wealth of tantalising, intriguing, but often unexplained detail. This book helps unravel what is fact and what is fiction.
Was SMERSH real or not? Does the casino where Bond beat Le Chiffre at baccarat exist? Who were Bond’s parents? Was Vesper the first Bond girl? What did the Russian symbol carved into the back of Bond’s hand by SMERSH mean? How much is fact, and how much is fiction? Ian Fleming’s James Bond novels are highly imaginative fiction, but much of what he writes about is based on fact, real people, real events, places and situations.
