'Living with James Bond' 007

Non-Fiction - True Life - English Edition

The True-Life Story about the 'original model' for Ian Fleming's - James Bond. The man who started it all. Yes, he was heavily fictionalized - to protect him, made him British, given and ornithologists name etc, but it all started with just him. What Ian never changed from Bronislaw was his exact and precise physical attributes and face and drew the ONLY sketch ever of Bond directly from a photograph of Urbanski. And of course, his wartime feats were integrated into his books. All this via one superspy SOE Christine Granville aka Krystyna Skarbek.

​

Please Note: This book has been historically fact checked and thoroughly researched for accuracy! A true-life account supported by evidence.

​​The Man Behind the Code Name: The True Origin of 007

    For seventy years, the world believed that 'James Bond' was a work of pure imagination. 100% fiction. But behind the Tuxedo and the Martini lived a real man—a "White Ghost" of the Polish Underground and the 'King Assassin' to the British War Office, whose life was too dangerous for the history books.

Bronisław Urbański was not a fictional character. He was a "Liquidator" for the elite Unit 99/3, a cryptologist who helped save the 'Enigma' secrets, and the man SMERSH spent years trying to erase.

​

The Fleming Connection: Fact vs. Fiction

    To protect the British Official Secrets Act, Ian Fleming couldn't just write a biography. Nor Agents from his past. He wrote a "mask." While Fleming gave Bond his own Naval rank and British nationality, the soul, the face, and the lethality belonged to Bronisław.

​​​​​​​​​The Evidence: One in a Trillion

How do we know? Because the math by BBC actually says so.

• The Passport Identity: In 1951, Krystyna Skarbek provided Fleming with Bronisław’s 1949 Australian passport details. Fleming used every single physical identifier: height, weight, eye color, and even the exact placement of scars (though shifted slightly to comply with the Secrecy Act). And the one photograph of Bronislaw.
   

• The Mathematical Scientific Match: (Based on the exact letter sent to Arthur Paul of Playboy Ian lists 10 x features of Bonds unique physique) and Science dictates that just matching 8 unique physical features of that: results in a 1-in-a-trillion probability. BUT...Fleming used all 10 of Bronisław’s traits. BBC funded science. To be honest since it was 1951 the odds changed to greater to solidly prove it was him as there were less people on the planet. Meaning it was really like 1 in 4 trillion that it could have been anyone else, but Bronislaw. Unlike today's population of just 8.2 billion back then was only in 1951 approx. 2.4 billion in case you're wondering we have not reached a Trillion at all yet, got it?
  Science has PROVED IT alone. You would need 500 x more earths to get another, got it? 

• Exact Height to the Inch

• Eye precise Color

• Hair Color

• Complexion

• Shape of Face

• Visible Scars (facial scar)

• Shape of Nose

• Weight/Build to the lb precisely

• Distinctive marks (like the "comma" of hair or specific brow shape)

• Physical "Vibe" or Stature and build and more.
   

• The "Only" Sketch ever of Bond was Bronislaw: The only existing sketch of James Bond drawn by Fleming's hand shows a near-perfect overlay with Bronisław’s photographs—a match verified by modern AI analysis.
   

• His War Director/Lover/Cousin already proven as Ian's Vesper Lynd, its game set match. She simply 'Championed him to Ian'. Gave him, the war stories, the incredible feats, the photos, the papers the entire story. Ian just 'fictionalized' them both. He had to under the British Secrecy Act. 
  All of this is 100% true and non-fiction.
   

The Vesper Lynd Link: Already Proven

    It is now widely accepted by historians that Christine Granville (Krystyna Skarbek), Churchill's "favorite spy," was the actual model for Ian Fleming's Vesper Lynd.

​

    What the world didn't know—until now—was the identity of her "incredible lover and assassin" whom she described to Fleming in 1951. You cannot have the real Vesper without the real Bond. They operated together, loved together, and survived the shadows of the SOE together. She had many husbands and lovers, only one true love. True Love Story. Pure Facts.

​

Why the Secret Stayed Buried

1. The Official Secrets Act: All parties—Fleming, Skarbek, and Urbański—were bound by law. Fleming promised Krystyna he would never reveal the source.

2. Survival: Post-war, Bronisław was hunted by SMERSH. If Fleming had used his real name, he would have signed Bronisław’s death warrant.

3. The Shift to SPECTRE: When Fleming realized in 1958 that Bronisław had survived the Soviet purges, he changed the enemy in his books from the real SMERSH to the fictional SPECTRE to further distance the fiction from the living man.
    

A Promise Kept

    In 1984, in Ottoway, Bronisław Urbański finally broke his silence to his son, Peter. He was dying. He didn't want fame; he wanted the truth recorded.
 

'Living with James Bond' is the result of decades of archival research, family verification, and the unmasking of the world's greatest literary mystery. It is not just a book; it is the restoration of a stolen legacy.
