James Bond: Inspirations of a Legend

James Bond: Inspirations of a Legend presents how twenty-four James Bond inspirations, known by Ian Fleming, were used to create fifty-two story passages found in all twelve Bond novels, five short stories, one television script, and four film screenplays released to the public before or shortly after his death. Each Bond inspiration is described as an assassin, field spy, intelligence gatherer, diplomat, cryptographer, business/corporate spy, naval commander, double (XX) agent, expert marksman, celebrity spy, war hero, womanizer, food and beverage connoisseur, world traveler, expert car-driver/pilot/scuba diver/sailor, author, mystic scholar, moralist who kills or refuses to kill in cold blood, and ultimate public servant to the Crown & Country. All of the research draws from published Bond inspiration documentaries and new millennial website information with Bond novels, short stories, and early films to define the fictional character as perceived by his creator.
