Sean Connery, the silver screen's first and most famous James Bond, is launching his autobiography, Being A Scot in his hometown today.
The book looks at Connery's early life as a milkman in Edinburgh's Fountainbridge neighborhood, then delves into a wide-ranging look at Scottish culture including the work of poet Robert Burns, novelist Sir Walter Scott and Mary, Queen of Scots.
Connery has long been an activist for the independence of Scotland and refuses to live there until it achieves independence from the United Kingdom. He currently resides in the Bahamas.
Besides the James Bond features, Connery also starred in The Molly McGuires, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, The Hunt for Red October and The Untouchables, which earned him an Academy Award for best supporting actor.
He also runs his own website: Sean Connery.com
