WELCOME
Early last year we received an unusual request. The producers of the next film wanted permission to include a copy of our August 2008 issue in. At the time of writing I don’t know whether we’ve made the cut, but if you do happen to be heading to the cinema soon, there’s a chance you’ll spy your favourite history magazine – hopefully not in the hands of a diabolical villain. Even if we’re not in the film, there’s still plenty of history to be found in the James Bond story and on page 41 of this month’s magazine, Henry Hemming reveals the true-life inspirations behind Ian Fleming’s most memorable characters.
