Happy trails

More than six decades have passed since Roy Rogers and Dale Evans first rode the celluloid range together, yet they continue to be loved and admired in a way few – if any – celebrities can claim. They co-starred in twenty-nine motion pictures and recorded more than 200 albums together, and they brought their talents to television in the 1950s, entertaining a large audience with The Roy Rogers Show. Happy Trails shares intimate photographs of the lives and fifty-six-year partnership of this famous couple, both on and off the screen. From their first singing jobs to their successful film careers, the photographs chronicle the duo's early struggles and slow rise to stardom. On the home front, their faith was constantly tested by the struggles in their personal lives. The family photographs show the family's steadfast faith and endurance during tough times and their love and warmth during happier times, when the children were young and their parents were not only superstars, they were "Mom" and "Dad."
