This book, written by Don Knotts’ brother-in-law, is the story of both Don Knotts and Andy Griffith and their rise in show business from “No Time For Sergeants” in the 1950s to their iconic “The Andy Griffith Show” in the 1960s. The anecdots are personal and interesting. As I read the book, I was surprised at how well written it is, but at the end, the author’s bio mentions that he won the Pulitzer Prize, so that made sense. After reading some pretty heavy books before this one, I was ready for something light. And this is what “Andy and Don” was. I thoroughly enjoyed it. ( ) Andy & Don: The Making of a Friendship and a Classic American TV Show is a powerful book and a great one to win a free copy of from a Goodreads contest. Daniel de Vise examines the lives of Andy Griffith and Don Knotts providing a different way to look at these two iconic men. It is full of interesting facts and shines a different light on each man as a person as well as an actor. Andy & Don is a sweet tale of friendship framed around one of the best comedies to come out of the 60s, The Andy Griffith Show. Andy Griffith and Don Knotts, both with rural southern backgrounds, met on Broadway and then solidified their bond on Griffith’s show. The book highlights the great friendship and comedy they shared. It also is honest about the foibles and mistakes along the way – Knotts’ debilitating hypochondria and Griffith’s explosive anger. But at its heart, the book is about an era long-gone, even in the 60s, when the pace was slower and friendship seemed deeper. You don’t have to be a big fan of the show to like this book, just a fan of simpler times and of the appreciation of small things in life.
