Non-fiction Fleming titles get new release

New editions of Ian Fleming’s two non-fiction books are due to be published later this month in the United States and early April in the UK.

The Diamond Smugglers and Thrilling Cities are to be published by Thomas & Mercer on 26th March in the US, while Vintage Classics releases them in Britain on 4th April.

In The Diamond Smugglers Fleming investigated an operation that smuggled millions of pounds of the stone from Africa, while Thrilling Cities takes the reader on Bond-esque visit of a number of cities around the globe in the company of 007’s author.

David Leigh founded The James Bond Dossier in 2002. A fan of 007 since the age of 8, he is also author of The Complete Guide to the Drinks of James Bond. You can order a copy here if you don't own it already.
