The Story of Will Rogers DVD

Narrated by Bob Hope and presented in its entirety as originally broadcast, the life of the rope twirling humorist is traced from his Oklahoma roots to his death in an Alaska plan crash. Rogers’ skill with a lariat led him into show business as a trick rope artist with Texas Jack’s Wild West Circus.

As the jokes and irreverent quips he added to his act became more popular than the tricks, his fame grew to where he became the country boy conscience of his time.
