Hi!
I just received this from our friend, Wes Britton ... his new and improved website is up! Wes is the author of SPY TELEVISION (where he even mentions the FORUM!), BEYOND BOND, and ONSCREEN AND UNDERCOVER: THE ULTIMATE BOOK OF MOVIE ESPIONAGE. Wes has included an excerpt from Marc and Linda's great I SPY Book on his new site, all about the “The I SPY Movie That Never Was.”

Introducing an exciting new website!
WWW.Spywise.net
Spywise.net offers revised and updated resources, articles, and interviews on all aspects of espionage formerly housed at WWW.WesleyBritton.com. For the debut of the revamped, souped-up Spywise, we have some special new material for you.
James Bond 007 Under The Microscope by O.F. Snelling. For the first time since its original publication in 1964, the classic study once known as James Bond: A Report is now available anew in this electronic format! When it first appeared, the book sold over 2 million copies, but has long been out of print. No longer – and this nugget now includes an introduction by Snelling he intended for an updated version in 1980. Truly, an important read for all James Bond fans!
“The O. F. Snelling 007 Letters.” From 1979 to 1994, O. F. Snelling shared a remarkable correspondence with Ronald Payne, Snelling’s literary executor and the subject of the popular “Untold Tales of 007” articles at this website. Now, Ron shares selected letters from his erudite friend discussing the changes in the 007 universe, his thoughts on spy movies and thriller writers, and much more!
The “O. F. Snelling Archives” can be found in “The James Bond Files” section. What else will you discover at SpyWise.net?
“Spies on Film” offers insider interviews on spy movies of the past, present, and future, including a brand-new behind the scenes look into The Champagne Spy, the award winning documentary now making its rounds in international film festivals.
“Spies on Television and Radio” remains an indispensable resource on all aspects of espionage on the small screen. Our newest feature is author Marc Cushman’s insider story about “The I SPY Movie That Never Was.” What would have happened if Robert Culp and Bill Cosby had made an I Spy feature film on their own terms?
“Spies in History and Literature” explores both fact and fiction with directories and bibliographies, memoirs of former intelligence officers, as well as interviews with spy writers.
And, of course, you can find out more about Wes Britton’s classic books on espionage and news on Wes’s media appearances and interviews! For example, on Tuesday, August 14, Wes will be interviewed on “Talking Television With Dave White on KSAV, broadcast online everywhere in the world!
