Prince Of Players.

Edwin "Ned" Booth is the son of the noted thespian Junius Brutus Booth and the older brother of another actor, John Wilkes Booth. As a boy, and into early manhood, he travels with and assists Junius, who is often drunk and seems at times on the brink of madness. Ned's first performance is of Richard III during a show at a mining camp, where the miners, disappointed at first, are ultimately pleased by what they see.
