Britain's Secret Service wasn't always based in the imposing building at Vauxhall Cross. The department known to Bond devotees as Universal Exports has had many homes - and with J. P. Sperati as your guide you can visit them all!
Which villain lived in the same street as
Ian Fleming? Which villain was disposed of at an East End gasworks? How did Skyfall change the map of the London Underground? How can you visit St. Petersburg in several different areas of London? How did
The World Is Not Enough defy the geography of the River Thames? Where in London can you find Shanghai and Hamburg? Where did we first hear those immortal words, "Bond - James Bond"?
All these questions - and many more - are answered in this fully illustrated up-to-the-minute handbook of 007's London! Complete with historical information, indexes and maps you can explore the world of James Bond on Location. A must for all James Bond and London Enthusiasts.

Editor's note:
A similar book as
James Bond on Location: London was published in 2002,
James Bond's London by Gary Giblin, but is out of print since many years and now a much sought-after collectible amongst Bond travellers.
Also, when it comes to travelling to real-life 007 locations, no one should do it without Martijn Mulder's excellent travel book
On the Tracks of 007.
