Very good but still brief in places, interesting information on some of what Fleming was involved with,but other details. Very sparse on a lot of detail, and more will likely come to light in later years, although some will never be known as the only participants will have passed away. Some superfluous appendices. Not great for the general reader, but good for Fleming enthusiasts ( ) sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
While his extravagant and glamorous lifestyle is well known, little has been published concerning Ian Fleming's contribution during the Second World War. In the very early days of the War, Fleming was earmarked by the Director of Naval Intelligence as his 'right hand man'. From the outset he was in the center of events, meeting with key political and military figures as well as those of exceptional intelligence, experience and courage. All this was to give him invaluable background when he came to write the Bond novels. The author has uncovered through official documentation, private papers and contacts the depth of Fleming's work in Naval Intelligence. Fascinating insights of those he worked with and details of covert trips to Europe and North Africa emerge. Fleming was closely associated with 30 Assault Unit, a crack team of Commandos who took the fight to the enemy. The book reveals both the history of 30 AU and Fleming's role.
