Title: Company of Heroes: My Life As an Actor in the John Ford Stock Company by Harry Carey ISBN: 1-56833-068-5 Publisher: Madison Books Pub. Date: June, 1994 Format: Paperback Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $16.95 |

Summary: Sidekick
Comment: An interesting companion to some of the bios now appearing about John Ford. Carey first met Ford when his father worked with Ford in silent movies and grew up with Uncle Jack to have a movie career of his own. Some good behind the scene color to a man of prodigious talent and personality faults.
Rating: 5
Summary: Probably my Favorite Book on Ford
Comment: There have been a lot of books on John Ford, and I hope there are many more, because I think he was the greatest American director there ever was, or will be. He created unforgettable images, tales of strength and tenderness, and characters that we never forget. His best movies remain with you over the years. "She Wore a Yellow Ribbon" is a movie that you appreciate more as you get older. Harry Carey's book gives you a view of Ford, in all his tyranny and tenderness, that you're simply not going to find anywhere else. He also has great stories about the early great western stars: William S. Hart, Harry Carey, Sr., and Hoot Gibson. Read it if you're a Ford fan!
Rating: 5
Summary: Outstanding!
Comment: A really fine book by someone who has a true appreciation for the giants he worked with. Mr. Carey is a wonderful story teller, sensitive with a good sense of humor. His observations make for what may be the best book about John Ford ever written. But it is Dobe Carey's depiction of all the greats who worked for Ford that makes this book special indeed. They were unique and wonderful screen icons, the likes of which we will never see again. Mr. Carey brings them to life again in a way I shall never forget. Do not miss this book!
