    Hi
    A trio of Books about Ford sorry no photos as I am not that good at it:-


    The John Ford Movie Mystery - Andrew Sarris


    A part of the Cinema One series published by Secker and Warburgh in association with the BFI 1976 192 pages


    My Darling Clementine - John Ford Director edited by Robert Lyons 1984 published by Rutgers University Press New Brunswick New Jersey 196 pages.


    This volume contains a full transcript of the film as released and significant material from Fords shooting script. A 1964 interview with Ford on making westerns and a recent (then) inteview with Winston Miller, the film's scriptwriter, supply valuable background to the film. Essays by the noted British director Lindsay Anderson and by several distinguished film scholars establish 'My Darling Clementine's'place in Ford's career and in the tradition of the Hollywood Western. Robert Lyons, the editor of this volume, provides an introduction that explores Ford's use of Western history and familiar Hollywood conventions in creating this remarkable film.
