Thrilling Cities
by Ian Fleming
His world travel, Ian Fleming's interests, journalism, and wartime experience gave credibility to everything he wrote. In 1959, the Sunday Times commissioned Fleming to write a series of posts from some of the most attractive regions in the world. The result was Fascinating Cities, the author's masterpiece of a well-observed travel sport that stands alongside the Bond canon.\nHere are Fleming's very personal observations of fourteen cities in Europe, Asia and North America, from Vienna to Hong Kong and Chicago. At each stop, Fleming throws the guide aside and takes readers on an inside tour of everything from Tokyo's geisha house, run by the world's most beautiful women, to a full Las Vegas casino where fortunes ride a roll of dice and beyond.
