However, on the critical side, this book didn't live up to my expectations in terms of describing the off-screen lives of the Bond girls. It spends a majority of the exposition describing the plot of each James Bond movie and then reserves only a minimal amount of page space to briefly, and I mean BRIEFLY, tell you about the actresses who portrayed Bond Girls in the movies. It is just not detailed enough. I was hoping to learn more about where Honor Blackman is right now in her life, or what became of Shirley Eaton after she became popular as a "Golden Girl". The book doesn't go into some of these things. Maybe this is because of the lack of information available, but if this is the case, I think the book should be advertised as more of a photo album rather than an expository book. Although the plot descriptions are very good, we have plenty of books which explain the plots of the James Bond movies. It doesn't have to be the emphasis in this book. The emphasis should be on the actresses themselves, not the characters they portrayed in the context of the story.
I give this book four stars because of the quality of the photographs, but it falls short of a five because of the reasons I stated.
Having all of the Bond books, the collections, and "encyclopedias," etc., I didn't think there'd ever be another Bond book that I'd want to have, much less need, but "The James Bond Girls" is a must have for everyone who's ever thought of themselves as a Bond fan.
