My name is Mike and I live in New Jersey, the home of Michael Landon. I have never not been a fan of Bonanza,as I grew up watching it on NBC and in reruns.
I contributed in a very small way to David Greenland's Bonanza book. I informed him of Dan Blocker's role as a monster in Outer Space Jitters, a Three Stooges flick from 1957, and one or two other items. He started off the book, in the forward, with my anecdote about stealing model airplane paint with my buddies till I saw Hoss Cartwright looking at me from a Bonanza lunchbox and ashamed, I returned the paint. Yes I know its corny but its true and I never swiped anything again.
Greenland and and I exchanged letters for about a year about Bonanza, one day out of the blue he was nice enough to send me a VCR tape of Bonanza outakes from David Dortort's personal collection that Dortort had not previously shared.
I have as yet never seen a Bonanza book the equal to or superior to Greenland's, but if someone can recommend one I'd be grateful.
In any event you seem to have a nice board here.
Hi Guys, Greetings from Jersey

I have that book too and agree it is the best most informative Bonanza book around. I got a copy of it when it went back in publication a few years ago, but the colors are off totally, but the book is absolutely worth it for the bonanza facts.Mike from Jersey wrote: I have as yet never seen a Bonanza book the equal to or superior to Greenland's
