Joseph Malham presents an uncommon biography of John Ford, arguably the greatest director of all time.  Weaving details of Ford’s famous films with careful analysis of the artist’s personal life, Searcher presents a rarely explored facet of this troubled yet poetic genius.  Malham creates a fascinating portrait of a man whose spiritual faith helped give shape and profundity to his unmatched body of cinematic work.

This book is long overdue and hopefully will put Ford in a proper light as a man of great faith, sensitivity and genius – an immortal symbol of how culture can be lifted through truth, beauty, and goodness.
