Recently there was a Bond Marathon on cable. I had just
finished reading the manuscript and was picking up on all the detailed nuances
in each movie. What a great companion book! I have most of the movies, but now
it is my quest to own them all and display my Bond book with them. SPECTRA
is debuting this week and it is
included. Love all my Bond men, and I have always wanted to be a Bond girl.

For the adolescent male growing up in the 1950s and 1960s,
007 was everything that young men were not. He was sexually irresistible to
women. He was well dressed and well groomed, socially astute, clever and witty,
athletic, debonair, dangerous, and heroic. He drove the coolest cars, possessed
the greatest gadgets, traveled to the most exotic places, made love to the most
beautiful women, and had the most fun of any cinematic hero. James Bond
represented everything that authors John and Bob wanted to be. And now, as they
look back over the years as middle-aged adults and college professors, both
realize how much Bond helped re-define their understanding of what it meant to
be manly, particularly at a time in our culture when the roles of men and women
were becoming so fractured and confused. This book provides witty and
insightful aphorisms about everyday things, ranging from girls to food and
drink, cars to clothing and style, and life lessons to fun facts about culture
and civilization, as reflected through the prism of James Bond, the world’s
most stylish and cultured secret agent.
