Query: A stirring family drama in the shadow of the Duke

This is a fantastic book. In a series of stories linked by the figure of John Wayne, Dan Barden weaves an emotionally taut family saga.As much as this is a book about John Wayne, it is also a book about the Bardens, a family trying to make sense of their own lives in the shadow of the Duke. He takes the John Wayne myth and peels it back to show us how much more heroic a complex, flawed individual trying to imagine the best for himself is than the Indian fighting screen image against which his life is set. There is poetry here and insight. I loved it.
