Publisher: Simon & Schuster; 1994 Jane and Michael Stern (Collaborators) Hardcover: 252 pages - 6.5 x 9.8 inches ISBN-10: 0671897144 ISBN-13: 978-0671897147 Tracing the lives of two actors whose on-screen romance became a real-life marriage, a detailed portrait recounts Roy Rogers's Midwest childhood and years as a singing cowboy, and Dale Evans's experiences as a young singer and dancer. "Roy Rogers and Dale Evans, who played highly moral heroes and heroines and satisfied America's passion for westerns in the 1940s and '50s, here present their dual autobiography, co-written by pop culture-chronicler Sterns (Way Out West). The stars relive their early struggles-he as an Ohio "backwoods country boy" and she as an ambitious, would-be chanteuse-and move on to their triumphs in rodeos, 88 movies, radio series and TV shows. In the most dramatic episode, they recall how, during the filming of The Cowboy and the Senorita, Rogers, astride his famous horse, Trigger, rescued his new co-star from her rampaging horse, an adventure that led to their marriage in 1948". Very good condition. Book is in fine, like new condition. The jacket shows some edgewear and a few minor tears on corners.
