On the tracks of OO7:
All James Bond film locations in one unique travel guide

Dutch 007 connoisseur Martijn Mulder has written a unique field guide to the exotic James Bond filming locations around the world. Four time Bond director Guy Hamilton contributed a foreword for the book, which is published by DMD Digital and is scheduled for release early September. Filled with historical background information, travel directions and location photographs, ‘On the tracks of 007’ brings you as close to the filming locations as you can get, enabling you to relive your favourite James Bond scenes AND travel the world within the turn of a page.

Together with his co-author, the late Dirk Kloosterboer from Germany, Mulder spent many family holidays researching, finding, mapping out and photographing all the locations ever used in the James Bond films. These - often spectacular – findings were turned into 30 detailed travel stories and for many years formed the heart of one of the longest running Bond related websites on the Net, Onthetracksof007.com . With Bond mania about to peak (the release of the new Bond film Quantum Of Solace is later this year), Mulder edited the stories and 665 photographs, presenting a one-of-a-kind field guide that will definitely please fans, travellers, film buffs and adventurers from around the world.

“No Bond fan who’s thinking of visiting any of the countries in which 007 has had adventures should be without this indispensable guide!” says Graham Rye, editor and publisher of 007 Magazine, “Where the Bond traveller may once have wasted many valuable hours in an effort to locate the various film locations in whichever country, Martijn Mulder and Dirk Kloosterboer’s exhaustive work has lifted that burden from all 007 holidaymakers, making their trip to that country even more enjoyable.”

‘On the tracks of 007’ is available with either B/W or full colour interior and features travel stories to exotic destinations like Jamaica, the Bahamas, Mexico, Japan, Egypt, Thailand and India, and cities like Paris, Hamburg, Istanbul, Hong Kong and Amsterdam. The 288-page book lists all used locations from Dr. No to Casino Royale and includes information on the latest Bond film Quantum Of Solace . Additionally, a full listing is included of all hotels ever used in the Bond films.

ABOUT THE AUTHORS:
Martijn Mulder's passion for James Bond started in the early 80s. Martijn was the first ever to compile a complete list of the 007 filming locations in the 90s and his passion for travelling took him across the globe, in a desperate attempt to complete his list. During this time he began The James Bond Locations Page on the internet, a popular source for location information in the early days of the internet, which ultimately became On the tracks of 007. Martijn Mulder is 36, self employed and lives in the Netherlands.

Dirk Kloosterboer was born in Germany in 1951 and had already established a love for the subject of James Bond some twenty years later, around the time his future co-writer was born. His talent for photography and love for the English language proved a very useful combination when Dirk started working on this project. Sadly and totally unexpectedly, Dirk's life ended on March 16, 2004 at the age of 52, leaving behind his wife and two daughters.

ABOUT ON THE TRACKS OF 007:
After getting in contact through e-mail helping each other out with location information, the authors decided to team up and to start a project together. This became On the tracks of 007, a new website and potential book project. After Dirk's untimely death in 2004, Martijn received support from many friends from the Bond fan community and with their help the project could finally be completed. Today, being one of the longest running Bond related websites, On the tracks of 007 still is a very popular source of information for both individuals and media, resulting in many contributions to magazines and newspapers worldwide.
