The Essential Bond

From Sean Connery to Pierce Brosnan The Essential Bond book examines each and every facet of the James Bond world.

Bond started out in books by author Ian Fleming.  His first screen appearance was on a TV anthology series adaptation of Casino Royale.  

James was renamed Jimmy and he was an American.

It is remarkable that the stories of a British secret agent could generate so much fan fervor and loyalty.  For someone who is supposed to be undercover spy James Bond has had more worldwide exposure than most public figures.

While different actors have imbued James with a variety of personality traits he is, despite his glamorous surroundings and accouterments, a licensed assassin.

In the James Bond books by Ian Fleming, James is tough, resilient, resourceful and deadly.

The Essential Bond The Unauthorized Guide To The World Of 007, by Lee Pfeiffer and Dave Worrall and published by Harper Entertainment, features photos of Connery and Brosnan on its cover.

Each authorized Bond movie from Dr. No to Tomorrow Never Dies is given full coverage.

Besides a complete movie breakdown each film expose mentions the production and cast, behind-the-scenes occurrences, marketing, gadgets, locations, box office draws and much more

Black and white photos from each film, candid shots and merchandise and collectibles are also showcased.

Look for posters, product tie-ins, a list of the 007 film personnel, behind the scenes tidbit, the literary James Bond, other spy movies and the unofficial Bond films.

It’s a jam-packed book 007 extravaganza that is filled with 007 facts and more.

Proverbs 18:21 (KJV) “Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.”
