Thrilling Cities

Thrilling Cities comprises of a series of articles written by Ian Fleming on two trips in 1959 and 1960 for the Sunday Times and published in book form in 1963.

The articles were written with the aim of helping the reader find the type of excitement absent from more traditional travel writing, written from the point of view of the world’s best known espionage writer.

David Leigh founded The James Bond Dossier in 2002 and is the author of The Complete Guide to the Drinks of James Bond.
