Now in trade paperback, the frank and funny memoir of a living legend beloved by several generations. Nobody does it better ...'A deliciously self-mocking autobiography.' Sydney Morning Herald Mention the name Roger Moore and James Bond almost inevitably follows. After all, he dominated the big screen as the world's most famous spy for seven missions, more than any other 007. But before joining Her Majesty's secret service Roger Moore was already an international star thanks to another unforgettable signature role as 'the Saint', one of the most successful syndicated series in television history. And who could forget the rakish playboy Lord Brett Sinclair in 'the Persuaders'? In My Word is My Bond he looks back on a brilliant career and life with characteristic wit, from his childhood memories of London to his Hollywood career, his battle with prostate cancer and the inspiration he has gained from working for UNICEF. Punctuated throughout with anecdotes about friends such as Noel Coward, David Niven, Cary Grant, Richard Harris, Frank Sinatra, Gregory Peck, Michael Caine and Sean Connery, this frank and funny memoir is as charming and disarming as the man himself. And, as his millions of fans already know, nobody does it better.

Sir Roger Moore History of his acting career .Never mentions his relationship only the kids life with 1969 marriage with Luica ...She made him the man he is through 007 series.Wonderful lady..The same with Sean Connery who had a dear wife Diane Cilento who made his humor alive in Bond Series.She helped his career as well.The wife of actors suffer hardship with success of their husbands...No mention of article in depth Connery of his Bond role creating a monster.Or slapping women with a open fist.. and his acting failures.No mention of any history of stolen Bond Aston Martin.A lot of cover up in the book.. Mask over swear words.Bitter.

My Word is My Bond
This was a gift to a friend who knows a lot about movies. She plunged into it as soon as she opened the package, and was lost to the rest of the company, except for the occasional gust of laughter. Huge success!
