<p>Fifty years ago, an unknown writer sat down to write a novel that gave birth to one of the most famous fictional characters ever created. The novel was Casino Royale, the novelist Ian Fleming, and the character James Bond. Bond soon eclipsed his creator, progressing from page to screen ten years later. Immortalised through Sean Connery's performance then Roger Moore's, Bond was established as a worldwide sex symbol. He became an icon, defeating enemies and seducing women - and audiences - with his devastating combination of style, wry wit and understated cool. Martini, Guns and Girls is the definitive look at the world of Bond from Fleming's inception to the latest Pierce Brosnan blockbuster. This book examines how this adult fairy tale has managed to survive and thrive despite the bewildering number of changes that have occurred since the character's creation. It also features the extraordinary individuals - including Connery, Moore, 'Cubby' Broccoli and Fleming - who made Bond. With unprecedented access to the latest film and stills from the early years, Martin Sterling and Gary Morecambe present the ultimate history of a unique literary and cinematic icon.</p>
