"An excellent index, well-chosen photographs and illustrations, and an extensive bibliography add further value. American Masculinities is well worth what would otherise be too hefty a price for many libraries because no other encyclopedia comes close to covering this growing field so well."
"Pleasing layout and good cross-references make Carroll's compendium a welcome addition to collections serving readers of all ages. Highly recommended."
This is a highly recommended purchase for undergraduate, medium-sized, and large public libraries wishing to provide a substantial introduction to the field of men's studies.
"American Masculinities enjoys the advantage of taking a single approach to men's studies. . . . The contributors' deliberate depiction of changing attitudes over time graphically demonstrate varying views of manhood and the maturity of gender studies in America. The clarity they bring to an often amorphous subject deserves a place on shelves in both academic and public libraries."
