David Andrews Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 Good one, Bill. Off the top of my head, it might be worth looking at some of Bond's Caribbean adventures, in Diamonds are Forever, The Man with the Golden Gun, and elsewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Tom Scully Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 Hmmmmm.... Ian Fleming seems to have impregnated the then wife of a very powerful British Viscount and possibly sent the interesting life of said Viscount in a completely unanticipated direction, as well as his own. I wonder if he felt emboldened by knowledge of these much more recent revelations about Viscount Rothermere...... Secret documents have just been released concerning the relationship betweeen Lord Rothermere and Adolf Hitler have just been released. http://www.guardian....1449908,00.html Months before war, Rothermere said Hitler's work was superhuman Richard Norton-Taylor The Guardian, Thursday 31 March 2005 20.20 EST Article history The proprietor of the Daily Mail sent a series of supportive and congratulatory telegrams to Nazi Germany's leaders, including Hitler, just months before the second world war, papers released today reveal. Intercepted messages from Lord Rothermere to Berlin are among the first papers to be released from Foreign Office intelligence files. The files also show how, as early as 1906, MI6 drew up detailed plans to plant agents in Europe "in the event of war with Germany". At the end of 1938 they were telling London that Hitler believed Britain was "enemy No 1". Yet in the summer of 1939, Rothermere was still appealing to Hitler not to provoke a war, saying that Britain and Nazi Germany must remain at peace. "Our two great Nordic countries should pursue resolutely a policy of appeasement for, whatever anyone may say, our two great countries should be the leaders of the world," he told Joachim von Ribbentrop, Hitler's foreign minister, on July 7 1939. Ten days earlier, Rothermere had written to Hitler: "My Dear Führer, I have watched with understanding and interest the progress of your great and superhuman work in regenerating your country." He assured Hitler that the British government had "no policy which involves the encirclement of Germany, and that no British government could exist which embraced such a policy"....... https://www.google.c...iw=1173&bih=732 Rothermere Sues for Divorce New York Times - Jan 31, 1952 Rothermere Sues for Divorce Viscount Rothermere, 53-year-old British newspaper publisher, Rothermere Sues for Divorce New York Times - Jan 31, 1952 ... filed suit forI divorce from Lady Rothermere today on grounds of misconduct.I His petition, which was on the list of undefended cases, cited a "Mr.I Fleming" as http://news.google.c...at-lady-*&hl=en Rothermere Gets Divorce New York Times - Feb 8, 1952 & Spokane Daily Chronicle - Feb 7, 1952 Rothermere Gets Divorce Viscount Rothermere, 53, London newspaper proprietor, was granted a decree nisi in divorce court today.
