This Is Your Captain Speaking by Gavin MacLeod

This Is Your Captain Speaking is the autobiography of legendary American actor Gavin MacLeod who is very well known for the roles of Murray Slaughter on the Mary Tyler Moore Show from 1970-77 and Captain Merrill Stubing on the Love Boat from 1977-86. In this book he talks about his upbringing in Pleasantville, New York, the sad death of his father in 1945, studied acting @ College, worked with people like Marilyn Monroe,Cary Grant, Steve McQueen,Susan Hayward,Frank Sinatra,Bing Crosby, Mary Tyler Moore etc, made his first film in 1958, his time on both The Mary Tyler Moore Show and The Love Boat, his faith in God, his 2 marriages, his travels on the Princess Cruises as a Ambassador and many others. It is a EXCELLENT and a BRILLIANT book with great stories, humor,grace and wide eyed enthusiasm. This book is co written with Mark Dagostino an best selling co author and celebrity journalist which for 10 years he served on staff for the People magazine as a correspondent columnist and senior writer which he has interviewed like Michael J Fox,Donald Trump,Christopher Reeve and others. This book is a must for any any TV fans as well as fans of the Mary Tyler Moore Show and The Love Boat and I am giving this 4 and a half stars which it's in the shops now so do yourself a favour and BUY IT.
