"'an ambitious and topical monograph... comprehensive, encyclopedic, reading-focused and theoretically accessible enough to appeal to students, and it genuinely opens up new conceptual ground, especially by juxtaposing British and American masculinities within their specific national contexts' Professor Berthold Schoene, University of Manchester 'Baker's work is a significant contribution to the field of Men's Studies because in it he connects masculinities with men's history and popular culture. This work aids in our understanding of the needs of America and Britain in the 20th century and how they created fictionalized masculinities to shape the lives of their men.' Cindy A. McLeod, The Rocky Mountain Review of Language and Literature"
