I am going to tell you the story about how Ian Fleming created the greatest secret agent the world has ever known and the extraordinary truth behind James Bond.
James Bond first came to life on February 17. 1952, his creator Ian Fleming has always wanted to write the spy-story to end all spy-stories, but when he sat down with his typewriter in his Jamaican villa, not even Fleming could have imagined the phenomenal he was about to create. Fleming had not prepared any kind of outline or plot, he simply made it up as he went along. Only 3 hours later he typed out 2000 words and six weeks after that, had he arrived at the last line of his novel. The James Bonds stories would go on to captivate people all over the world. John Pearson, who was working with Fleming at the time, was impressed by the books winning formula. John Pearson was quite sure that Fleming was building on the stories that he had read as a school boy and what Fleming did was to add three things to the stories and what he also was criticized for, was being guilty of sex, snobbery and sadism. That is exactly what we have got in the books and what better ingredient to bring the English spy-thriller up to date. But where was Ian Fleming finding that extra ingredient to add in his exciting new novels?
