Reviews

'... a well-researched and clearly written book that I can see pairing with one of the Johnsons' films in a graduate or undergraduate course. Ahrens, Lindstrom, and Paisley have given their readers a helpful narrative that connects American fantasies about empire to popular culture. And, even more useful, they have done this by focusing on one couple whose drive to film and document the world was both tireless and entertaining.' American Historical Review '... the book not only offers greater historical context on race and empire but also contributes to understandings of early 20th-century feminism and gender roles ...' The Journal of Pacific History
