Was James Bond Icelandic? Ticket with One Hour Lecture
Reykjavik, Iceland
Sir Stephenson’s story is so much intriguing as very little known compared to those of others characters who appear in this fascinating tell: Winston Churchill, Ian Fleming, Franklin Delano Roosvelt and William J. Donovan, to name but a few. The project is very dense with anecdotes which will convince you of the role played by the Canadian-Icelandic industrialist in the Second World War, but also in defining some essential characteristics of … James Bond!
