Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. 1st Edition. Hardcover. Bound in brown/rust cloth with black lettering. Spine is faded a half-tone lighter than the boards. Maps for endpapers. 257 pages. No DJ. Color frontispiece. Stated first printing. A guide to all the species of birds known from the Greater Antilles, Lesser Antilles and Bahama Islands. Line drawings by Earl Poole. The paper is ever-so-faintly toned from age, with a spot or two of foxing. Three pages were dog-eared, but have been unfolded now. Apart from being a very fine field guide, this title has the wonderful distinction of having been the major life work of James Bond, who lent his name to the British secret agent created by his good friend Ian Fleming. The book has been reprinted several times be several different publishers, a testament to its legitimacy as a field guide. This is the first edition, printed 6 years before the first 007 novel was published. Please email with questions or to request photos.

Original o primera edición
First Macmillan edition, first printing; the edition that gave the world the name "James Bond". Ian Fleming, seeing his copy of this book at his Goldeneye estate in Jamaica, took the author's name for his literary creation. An exhaustive handbook of more than 400 species of birds found throughout the Caribbean, the work was first published under the title Birds of the West Indies in 1936. Fleming had sketched out his character and was looking to name it when he spied this retitled and revised Macmillan edition on his bookshelves and saw the potential of the author's name, James Bond. Fleming later told Mrs Bond, "it struck me that this name, brief, unromantic and yet very masculine was just what I needed and so James Bond II was born" (Letters, p. 280). Fleming contacted James Bond for permission to use his name, to which Bond replied, "fine with it" (Buckland, p. 19), unaware that his name would thereby become synonymous across the world with one of the defining characters of 20th-century literature and of British popular culture. By way of recompense, Fleming offered Bond the opportunity to christen "some particularly horrible species of bird. Ian Fleming" (Letters, p. 280). Fleming and James Bond met only once, when the ornithologist and his wife attended lunch at Goldeneye in 1963. Fleming recorded that the Bonds were "a charming couple who are amused by the whole joke" (Pearson, p. 364). On the occasion, Fleming presented Bond with a copy of You Only Live Twice with the inscription, "To The real James Bond from the thief of his identity, Ian Fleming". In homage to Bond, in the 2002 film Die Another Day, Pierce Brosnan picks up a copy of the book in a Havana hotel, and takes cover as an ornithologist "just here for the birds". Damien Buckland, Collection Editions: James Bond, 2016; Fergus Fleming, ed., The Man with the Golden Typewriter: Ian Fleming's James Bond Letters, 2015; John Pearson, The Life of Ian Fleming, 1966. Octavo. Original brown cloth, spine and front cover lettered in black, map endpapers printed in brown. With dust jacket. Colour frontispiece by F. L. Jacques, half-tone photographic plate, and line drawings throughout the text by Alexander Seidel. Spine ends a little rumpled, contents mildly toned but clean; price-clipped jacket slightly rubbed with trivial tears to fold ends, rear panel and flap lightly toned, else bright: a near-fine copy in very good jacket.

Condición: Good. First Edition. First edition. Signed on the dedication page by James Bond, the American ornithologist whose name Ian Fleming took for his iconic spy protagonist. Fleming, a keen birdwatcher himself, had a copy of Bond's guide and he later explained to the ornithologist's wife that "It struck me that this brief, unromantic, Anglo-Saxon and yet very masculine name was just what I needed, and so a second James Bond was born." In a Reader's Digest interview, Fleming noted, "I wanted the simplest, dullest, plainest sounding name I could find, and James Bond, was something more interesting, like Peregrine Carruthers. Exotic things would happen to and around him, but he would be a neutral anonymous, blunt instrument wielded by a government department." Bound in publisher's grayish-blue cloth lettered in gilt; lacking the dust jacket. Good, with lean to binding, nearly half of the cloth on front cover is lifted from the board. Pages toned and several hinges exposed. A very scarce book in the first edition, and more so signed.
