All about Bond

This autumn James Bond celebrates his 50th anniversary as a celluloid hero. The release of the latest 007 movie, Skyfall, will be the 24th movie starring the fictional secret service agent and All About Bond is a unique memoir that will delight, amuse and inform Bond fans the world over.

All About Bond is packed with surprises, insights and candid memories, both personal and photographic from legendary names who cut their teeth and carved out careers in some of the most memorable scenes in movie history.

The humor, the drama and the camaraderie, on set and off, is captured through the immortal lens of one of the world's most legendary photographers. Bond girls from Honor Blackman and Shirley Eaton to Britt Ekland and Joanna Lumley recall their thrills and spills filming cinema's most enduring and alluring sex symbols; and the man - and men - who made Bond, share the facts and the fictions behind the creation of cinema's foremost superhero.

There have been seven Bonds, 21 films, and scores of memorable stunts, gadgets, and girls - but never a book like this.  Celebrating 50 years of 007, it is packed with classic images of Bond, from Connery to Craig, and the first beguiling Bond girls, Honey Ryder and Pussy Galore.

Terry O'Neill is a legendary photographer that was on the sets of the 21 Bond films.
