"An illuminating, insider's journey through the world of Little House on the Prairie and beyond, from Dean Butler, who starred as Almanzo Wilder, the man Laura "Half Pint" Ingalls married on the iconic show still beloved by millions of fans as it reaches its 50th anniversary. With wit and candor, Butler recounts his passage through the Prairie, sharing stories and anecdotes of the remarkable cast who were his on-screen family. But that was merely the beginning of a diverse career that includes Broadway runs and roles on two other classic shows--Moondoggie in "The New Gidget" and Buffy’s ne'er-do-well father, Hank, in "Buffy the Vampire Slayer." Coming of age during a golden era of entertainment, Butler has evolved along with it, and today enjoys success and fulfillment as a director and producer while remaining deeply loyal to Little House." -- Page [2] of cover.
