    For all of those people who did not grow up or live during the '40s - '80s, you cannot begin to comprehend the importance and contribution of this man and his wife. Seeing this biography brought me back to the gentility and innocense of the time that is soooo lost to us now. The simple, basic "rightness" and values shown consistently through their lives and their work is without equal. They guided the nation of children growing up. While we have good people and talented artists today, it's true, none rise to level of true hero as did Roy Rogers and Dale Evans. This biography is a good one to see. Their written biography is even more worth the time to read. Sharon - Tucson, AZ

    Having read all Dale Evans' books and knowing much about their beginnings and families, this biography was accurate, but left a good bit of information about them out. Still, it is a very good rendition of their lives together.
