"Paul [Duncan], I am extremely pleased with the Taschen book on John Ford. I think it's the best book they have done on any director, American or otherwise. The text and photos are wonderful. Congratulations to you and Scott Eyman and all concerned. Sincerely, Dan Ford" Dan Ford, John Ford's Grandson United States
"TASCHEN is famous for their hip and sometimes-outlandish coffee table books. If your dad is a film buff, pick up one of their books from a series they released on famous film directors including: John Ford, Jean Renoir, Francois Truffault, Billy Wilder, Roman Polanski, and Paul Verhoeven." Examiner.com, Denver United States
"Combining the style and precision of Audubon with unnatural settings that seem more closely inspired by Brueghel and Hieronymus Bosch, Ford has forged a style that is entrancing and uniquely his own." Bergdorf Goodman Magazine, New York United States
“The ideal companions to the compact Movie Icons series are TASCHEN’s expansive meditations on essential filmmakers, from the oligarchy (John Ford, Alfred Hitchcock, Jean Renoir) to delightfully audacious contemporary picks (Michael Mann, Paul Verhoeven). Genre studies are also tackled in Film Noir and Erotic Cinema, which features an eye-popping Myra Breckinridge cover that begs to be unwrapped.” Stop Smiling, Chicago United States
"Es ésta una obra imperdible para los amantes del cien clásico y los admiradores de este realizador." Cine-grama, Santiago de Chile Chile
"Wer Näheres zur Vita des irischstämmigen Meisterregisseur und zu den Themen seines umfangreichen Werks erfahren will, kommt hier ebenso auf seine Kosten wie Fans seltener Filmfotos." Darmstädter Echo, Darmstadt Germany
"Sehr ausgewogene Mischung aus einer Fülle an Bildern (weit über 200) und nicht zu umfangreichen Textinfos u.a. zu teils verschollenen Frühwerken des Regisseurs. Unterhaltsam beim Blättern und informativ beim Lesen." Widescreen, Fürth Germany
"...das für den TASCHEN-Verlag übliche hervorragende Bildmaterial ... Ein interessanter und schön gestalteter Beitrag." Ray, Wien Austria
"John Ford (1894-1973) fut un pionnier du cinéma, un maître de l'action et du western. Magnifiquement illustré (photos de tournage noir et blanc, belles comme au premier jour), un album raconte cette vie de légende et offre une filmographie impeccable. De "The Tornado" (1917) aux "Cheyennes" (1964), un époustouflant voyage dans l'histoire du cinéma où "La Prisonnière du désert" (1956) fait figure de chef d'œuvre absolu." La Dépêche du midi, Toulouse France
"El monográfico de TASCHEN reúne en formato de lujo las fotografías de los rodajes". Fotogramas, Barcelona Spain
