"A close, unblinking look at a bright star with some internal darkness." -- Kirkus "In this incisive biography, Eliot reveals the man behind the on-screen paragon of stoic, all-American manhood ... briskly paced, with plenty of entertaining show-biz profiles and anecdotes ... Eliot's canny, well-judged study gives us the complexity of Wayne the man and the archetype." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) "Has a tell-all quality, disclosing titillating tidbits about the star's personal life, which includes several tabloid-worthy episodes." -- Honolulu Star-Advertiser
