Drawing on extensive interviews with such Avengers cast members as Linda Thorson ("Tara King"), Patrick Newell ("Mother"), Honor Blackman ("Cathy Gale"), and, of course, Patrick Macnee-plus several of the show's writers-this volume -An overview of the series-A complete, show-by-show episode guide-A comprehensive collectors' guide to Avengers memorabilia-More than 200 photographs of England's classiest crime fighters-And an introduction by Avengers producer Brian Clemens.So kick back, uncork a bottle of vintage '28, and relive the dashing adventures of England's high-class heroes!
