Roy Rogers and Dale Evans are Hollywood icons and represent a
time when life seemed simpler, purer, and a bit more marvelous. The
100th anniversaries of Roy and Dale's births were marked in 2011
and 2012. In celebration of their vivacious spirits, Revell
presents A Happy Trails Christmas, a special project that
combines two of their best-loved Christmas books: Christmas Is
Always from Dale and My Favorite Christmas Story from
Roy. These classic books on the true meaning of Christmas are
accompanied by plenty of family photos and a foreword by Roy Rogers
Jr.
The perfect nostalgic gift for the Baby Boomers on everyone's list,
A Happy Trails Christmas will remind readers of the simple
joys of celebrating the holidays.
The Christmas tree. The nativity. The lights. The carols.
Christmas is a wonderful time of year.
A time for seeing far-flung family members, eating
delicious food, and making special memories.
What better way to celebrate than to remember a simpler time when
every story had a happy ending, and the hero and his steed rode off
into a perfect sunset. This Christmas, rediscover the true meaning
beneath the trappings of wrapping paper and ribbon.
Let Roy Rogers and Dale Evans guide you down that happy trail to
the Christmas you long to remember.
