"""This story is as sensational as it is compelling. It would be unreasonable to say that a book complicating our ideas about masculinity could, or should, be art for its own sake. Still, it is never protesting or lecturing. You won’t be able to put it down."" – Sarah Marie, The Miramichi Reader""In the book, Tucker exhumes and examines the racial politics of “The Searchers” in a way that feels organic to his central situation; he gives the film its due in shaping (and perhaps warping) the perspective of global audiences towards Indigenous characters while suggesting this disfigurement is part of a larger tradition of mythification that’s even more pervasive than Ford’s spacious widescreen frames."" – Adam Nayman, The Toronto Star"
