A fresh portrait of the man behind James Bond and his enduring impact by an award-winning biographer with unprecedented access to the Fleming family papers. *WINNER OF THE CWA GOLD DAGGER FOR NON-FICTION* Ian Fleming's greatest creation James Bond has had an enormous and ongoing impact on our culture. What Bond represents about ideas of masculinity the British national psyche and global politics has shifted over time as has the interpretation of the life of his author. But Fleming himself was more mysterious and subtle than anything he wrote. Ian's childhood with his gifted brother Peter and his extraordinary mother set the pattern for his ambition to be 'the complete man' and he would strive for the means to achieve this 'completeness' all his life. Only a thriller writer for his last twelve years his dramatic personal life and impressive career in Naval Intelligence put him at the heart of critical moments in world history while also providing rich inspiration for his fiction. Exceptionally well connected and widely travelled from the United States and Soviet Russia to his beloved Jamaica Ian had access to the most powerful political figures at a time of profound change. Nicholas Shakespeare is one of the most gifted biographers working today. His talent for uncovering material that casts new light on his subjects is fully evident in this masterful definitive biography. His unprecedented access to the Fleming family papers and his nose for a story make this a fresh and eye-opening picture of a man whose life was overshadowed by his famous creation. *SHORTLISTED FOR THE CWA GOLD DAGGER FOR NON-FICTION*
