enduring cultural icons.

Carefully researched texts and copious illustrations trace Bond's
influence as a male style icon on many dimensions of popular culture,
from action sports to advertising - as well as on the man in the street.

illuminating material in this volume, which brings together a broad
range of previously unpublished documents including filmstills,
advertising, and candid images of the Cold War ambience of which Bond
was a product. Although many books have explored the fascinating history
