Star Trek FAQ Synopsis

This book is not endorsed sponsored or affiliated with CBS Studios Inc. Paramount Pictures or the Star Trek franchise. ÊStar Trek FAQÊ tells the complete story of ÊStar TrekÊ from the before the beginning (the books films and TV shows that inspired producer Gene Roddenberry to create ÊStar TrekÊ) until after the end (when the show emerged as a cultural phenomenon in syndication) and including dramatic behind-the-scenes stories (e.g. Leonard Nimoy's struggle with alcoholism and actress Grace Lee Whitney's controversial firing) often omitted from authorized histories of the program. Along with in-depth looks at the pre- and post-ÊTrekÊ careers of the show's iconic leads ÊStar Trek FAQÊ includes profiles of guest stars and redshirt extras alike as well as the many writers technicians and artisans whose efforts enabled ÊStar TrekÊ to take flight. The book also explores the show's unprecedented resurgence in the 1970s with chapters devoted to early ÊStar TrekÊ fiction merchandising and the short-lived animated series. Combining a wealth of fascinating information about every facet of the show's production with original analysis of ÊStar TrekÊ's enduring appeal and cultural influence ÊStar Trek FAQÊ goes where no ÊStar TrekÊ book has gone before.
