Irrevocably Bound Together In Star Trek History, William Shatner’s Tribute To Leonard Nimoy Explores Friendship and Regret

When Leonard Nimoy passed away on Friday, February 27th 2015, at age 83, he had inspired countless actors, politicians, astronauts and ordinary people. The outpouring of tributes to the man, who truly inhabited the iconic character of Spock on Star Trek, was universal. But none more poignant than that from William Shatner in the form of his new book, Leonard – My Fifty – Year Friendship With A Remarkable Man written with David Fisher. That’s because after almost half a century of friendship, there was a rift between them that Shatner never understood and was never repaired. “The fact that my contribution to Star Trek is done carries great sadness, but that is nothing compared to the devastation of Leonard’s death before we could resolve the fraying ropes of our friendship,” Shatner, 84, admits in his book. “I am filled with sadness at the realization it will never be put back together.”
