Reviews
A review in the Canadian Journal of Law and Society described the book as an "excellent scholarly book" and an "important historical document".

A Canadian Law Library Review (CLLR) review of the 2022 paperback edition of the book, which included a new preface by Roach, said the book was a "valuable investigation" of how indigenous people experience the Canadian justice system.

Roach focused on the "historical, political, social, and legal" aspects of the case, according to a Quill and Quire review.

A 2021 review in the British Journal of Canadian Studies said that Roachwhose book was informed by his previous books and his professional experiencepresented an "excellent account of the infamous" court case.

A CBC News' article cited the book, saying that the trial jurors did not receive enough instructions on how to handle a hang fire defence.

The Boushie family raised concerns that Roach had written the book without consulting them.
