Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. pp: 111. The FIRST EDITION identified by the words 'First Published 1965' on the copyright page. Pictorial dust jacket, black cloth covered boards. William Tanner, ostensibly the author of the book, is a fictional character in the James Bond film and novel series. He works for the Secret Intelligence Service (MI6). Kingsley Amis wrote The Book of Bond or Every Man His Own 007, which is a tongue-in-cheek manual for prospective secret agents, illustrated with examples from Fleming's novels. Amis adopted Tanner's name for the book. This is a very good, or better, copy with minimal edge wear. The very good, price-clipped dust jacket has two stains to the base of the rear panel, a touch of toning to the spine, and light soiling.
