Like most legends, Maverick's history is based as much on myth as on fact. Maverick: Legend of the West examines the myths and the realities, what made the show work during its first two seasons and how the backstage sturggles drove away the two key components behind the show's success-creator/producer Roy Huggins and star James Garner.
