Unlike most books on Ford, which approach the man and his work chronologically, this one is designed around a collection of ideas which provide a better sense of the coherence of the great director's thinking and creative output of film-making through the exploration of specific films. The framework of th is designed to give the reader a coherent overview of Ford's work by introducing, then developing discussion of various aspects of the films.
