Description
Alias Smith and Jones: The Story of Two Pretty Good Bad Men is a behind-the-scenes look at one of the last popular Westerns to air on television. The series, which aired from 1971 to 1973, starred Pete Duel and Ben Murphy as outlaw cousins trying to reform.
The show's origins can be traced back to earlier films, including Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, in which the characters are introduced with a simple yet memorable name swap. The series itself was produced by Roy Huggins and featured a range of guest stars, including Judy Carne and Sally Field.
This book showcases the episodes and provides a detailed history of the show, along with many rare photos and interviews with cast members. It offers a unique insight into one of television's most beloved Westerns, which has remained popular among fans for over 30 years.
