| Review : |
What began as a documentary for Shatner into trying to understand Trekkies, a wonderful memoir of convention tours both on stage and on the floor emerged. A revalation of the many ways that Star Trek has touched lives, encouraged many and even helps one woman's therapy from a violent childhood is chronicled. Full of funny stories, anecdotes and indeed sage advice for those who live for the dealer's room, Shatner gives a very moving and down to earth (no pun intended) broadview of the Trekkie and Convention phenomenon. The Photograph section includes an early Star Trek newsletter signed by Gene Roddenberry and a flyer from (one of)the first Star Trek conventions held. |
