The movie John Ford made from this book often tops polls of the best westerns ever made. Indeed it would be my personal choice for the best the genre can provide.

The prologue that starts the film with Wayne’s Ethan Edwards returning from his wanderings is not in the book and was Ford’s own invention. Frankly it does improve the story, it signposts Ford’s emphasis on Edwards as the true outsider and make Ethan’s repressed love for his brother’s wife all the more obvious, while the plot thread is much more direct in the book. Though to be honest the film’s way of handling the subtext of forbidden love is better because in the book we don’t actually see any of the longing but rather are told of it, first in subtle hints and then directly when Martin Paulie realises the fact. And the book starts off with the occupants of the Edwards ranch preparing for an Indian attack. They are short handed because a party of men including Amos Edwards and Martin Paulie are off chasing cattle rustlers.

Henry Edwards is left at his ranch and he realises that the cattle rustling was actually an Indian trick to lure most of them men away from the area. This is an incredibly effective sequence and although the Indians are not seen, only hinted at in both sounds and movements – disturbed quail fly up from the long grasses, a coyote howls in the distance.

Henry Edwards is a knowledgeable man and the reader knows that his fears are not unjustified. Henry wishes his big brother, Amos was here as he’s had more experience in fighting - Indians or otherwise. A high level of tension is racked up in this scene. The bulk of the story both in film and book is the massive search the two men endure in order to find the young girl they once called their own blood – a journey of six years that cost both men much and become their only reason for living but even these two, after so many false leads, after enduring so many winters, they have to turn back defeated.

And just when it is all over for them, just when they have finally admitted defeat, news comes to them and they set off again and finally come face to face with the girl they knew as Debbie but is now more Comanche. It shocks Marty that she doesn’t want to go with them, but not Amos who is still of a mind to kill the girl rather than let her life the life of, what he sees as a savage.

Warning spoiler ahead – it is in the final section of the story where the book differs mostly from the film – there are two major scenes where the reader is unsure if Amos is going to kill the girl and we know that to do so would set Marty against him, and by this point in the story Marty is indeed more than a match for Amos Edwards and the big man knows it. Though it is most certainly not fear that holds his hand from killing the girl but some inner love; perhaps he sees his beloved Martha, the long dead wife of his brother, in the girl.
