About the Book

Roy Rogers' golden palomino, Trigger, was the perhaps the most famous horse in film--more popular than the man himself among certain fans. In its expanded second edition, this detailed look at the animals and men who created the legend of "the smartest horse in the movies" examines the life story of the original Trigger--and his doubles, particularly Little Trigger, the extraordinary trick horse.

Movies in which Trigger appeared without Rogers are discussed. More than 200 photographs (90 new to this edition) and 30,000 words of additional material are included, covering unresolved aspects of Trigger's story, controversies surrounding the sale of the Roy Roger's Museum collection and the fate of his legacy.

“Impressive...diligently researched”—Leonard Maltin’s Movie Crazy “If you want to know the real Trigger’s full story, Leo Pando’s book is the source to consult”—Big Reel “Meticulous...you’ll come away knowing more about the most famous horse in westerns than you ever deemed possible”—Western Clippings “Very interesting, revealing and worthwhile...highly recommended”—Wrangler's Roost “Top notch...highly recommended...photos are outstanding”—The Old Cowboy Picture Show “Leo Pando has written a love story that B western fans around the world can resonate with...in-depth analysis”—Suite 101.com/Western Collectibles “In a time in business where marketing was king and embellishment was the norm, Leo Pando has done yeoman’s work in searching out and documenting the impact one golden horse had on a society of people. Leo makes every effort to explain why Trigger was loved by so many and why he has gone down in history as America’s favorite horse.”—Dr. Floyd Branson, vice president, Palomino Horse Breeders Heritage Foundation “Rambo’s creator is a Trigger/Roy Rogers fan. Leo Pando’s book about these iconic Western figures is amazingly informative, entertaining, and revealing. Major secrets are uncovered. I couldn’t stop turning the pages and saying, ‘Wow, I didn’t know THAT.’”—David Morrell, New York Times bestselling author of First Blood.
