"Or How to Throw a Party for 12,000 of Your Most Intimate Friends"

A fascinating and funny behind-the-scenes account of the "Star Trek" conventions with 32 pages of never-before-seen photos, underground cartoons, the daily programs, and trivia contests.

Here it is - the story behind the "Star Trek" conventions. All the beloved bedlam and cherished chaos, presented in living black and blue.

A fascinating and funny account of the adventures and misadventures of the group that "started it all" with the very first "Star Trek" convention in 1972, written by Joan Winston, who was there from the beginning. Race along with her and "The Committee" from catastrophe to calamity and back again:

Try to get Leonard Nimoy out of the hotel and William Shatner in - past thousands of clamoring fans. How Nicelle Nichols made Joan cry. The Saturday night riot. Jimmy Doohan gives Security cardiac arrest. "Losing" George Takei, finding him, losing him … The Roddenberry Serenade. Creative wheelchair wrapping. Why it took three fans to bring DeForest Kelly one quart of orange juice…

In addition to the frantic behind-the-scenes fun, try your skill on the trivia quizzes, check the pocket programs, and actually feel you are there with Joan and The Committee - cruising at warp speed through a "happening" whose motto seems to be, "May the Great Bird of the Galaxy come and rest upon your planet…"

Joan Winston has worked for CBS and ABC, but she is best known to the public as one of the most enthusiastic and energetic "Star Trek" fans in the world. She is the coauthor of the best-selling Star Trek Lives! And she is known far and wide as one of "The Committee"

Captain's Log: William Shatner's Personal Account of the Making of Star Trek V: The Final Frontier

Author(s): Lisabeth Shatner

Book Series: The "Making of" Books
Book Number:

Copyright: ©1989
Condition: Very Good
Printing: 1st
ISBN: 0671686526

--Summary--
In 1965, a young Canadian actor was cast as the lead character in one of the most unusual television series ever: Star Trek. His dynamic portrayal of Captain James T. Kirk helped make the series into one of Hollywood's most amazing success stories... and made William Shatner part of an entertainment legend.

Over twenty years later, Star Trek is still going strong, as a series of smash motion pictures. And for Star Trek V: The Final Frontier, William Shatner took on an entirely new challenge -- to not only star, but serve as director and co-writer of a multi-million dollar Hollywood epic. Captain's Log: The Making of Star Trek V is the story of how Shatner faced that challenge, including...

His thoughts on Star Trek -- how the success of the series has shaped his life and career -- and his hopes and dreams for this latest Star Trek voyage!
Shatner's earliest script ideas -- from story conferences with Star Trek creator Gene Roddenberry and the film's producer, Harve Bennett, to the shaping of the final draft screenplay...
The agony and the ecstasy of the actual filming... from Paramount's back lot to Yosemite National Park... learning how to fly upside down and direct a film!
The insurmountable difficulties associated with some of the film's special-effects sequences... and how they forced Shatner to re-evaluate the movie's ending...
Plus

16 pages of fabulous, behind-the-scenes photos and interviews with the original and new cast members! Told by his daughter, Lisabeth, who witnessed each exciting development as it unfolded, you can follow each entry into the Captain's Log. It's all here in William Shatner's inside story of the making of Star Trek V -- the most spectacular Star Trek movie yet!

--Summary--
Chekov's Enterprise™ casts off with an expanded & updated introduction by Harlan Ellison!

"Scotty says, 'A Bonnie tale!' and I agree. It was great to relive our ten year 'reunion'. Thanks Walter!"
-James Doohan

"A wonderful romp of a read, full of fun, truth and wonderful memories. Walter has a wonderful way with words, and a scorching sense of self deprecating humour. Read it, trust me, you'll love it"
-DeForest Kelly

"I recently re-read Walter Koenig's book, Chekov's Enterprise. While reading I was frequently reminded that Walter is perceptive, incisive, deceptively funny, ironically cynical (perhaps cynically ironic), a sensitive sould, a very fine writer and a good friend.

His ability to capture the truth of a moment brought back memories of Star Trek I with glaring clarity … and many being poignant, often extremely funny, sometimes infuriatingly maddening and even theatrically historic.

It is obvious that Walter Koenig and Chekov are intimately intertwined. I commend him for this insightful, entertaining contribution to the Star Trek lore."
-Nichelle Nichols

"Chekov's Enterprise was my vehicle that took me on a wonderful voyage of rediscoveries and rememberances. This trek is fueled by Walter Koenig's lively curiosity, affecionate insights and his observant eyes and ears. And the best discovery of this delightful journey is finding yet another of my talented friend's many gifts. Bon voyage!"
-George Takei

Copyright: ©1992

* Watch as Leonard Nimoy takes the helm as director
* Join the cast and crew of the movies for good times & bad
* Discover the behind the scenes story of making the movies
* Explore the future of the Star Trek films

When Star Trek went off the air after its third season on television, it seemed that the voyages of the Starship Enterprise had ended. It looked as if we had seen the last of Captain Kirk, Mr. Spock, Dr. McCoy, and the rest of the intrepid crew. Even more than ten years later, no further adventures had happened, except for a handful of cartoons.

Then, in 1979, came the heralded arrival of the first Star Trek feature film -- Star Trek: The Motion Picture -- and a phenomenon was reborn. since that time, four more films, each a box-office success, have appeared to critical and popular acclaim. Trek: The Making of the Movies chronicles the on-screen and behind-the-scenes stories of each of these five films, as well as the sixth, and perhaps, final film, Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country.

Trek: The Making of the Movies offers a wealth of trivia, including information on the Star Trek II that never appeared and the aborted Star Trek VI: Starfleet Academy. Van Hise includes interviews with the stars of the movies, as well as with those who worked behind cameras and editing machines to bring them to the screen.

It is in the films that the biggest and boldest Trek stories have been told: new characters have been introduced, favorite heroes have ome and gone, and the adventures have continued. This book is a must for all fans of Star Trek, science fiction fans, film buffs, and all who are interested in the continuing Star Trek saga.

Inside Star Trek: The Real Story

Author(s): Herbert F. Solow and Robert H. Justman

Book Series: The "Making of" Books
Book Number:

Copyright: ©1996
Condition: Mint
Printing: 1st
ISBN: 0671896288

--Summary--
Before the actors were cast, before the U.S.S. Enterprise was designed, before the phenomenon exploded, there were three men who set about creating the Star Trek legend. Gene Roddenberry died in 1991. Herb Solow and Bob Justman now remain the only two people on the planet Earth who really know what happened in those early, heady days.

In the beginning of 1964, Herbert F. Solow was hired to run television production for Lucille Ball's struggling Desilu Studios. In April of that year, a rumpled, soft-spoken ex-cop named Gene Roddenberry walked into Solow's office with an idea for a new science fiction television series called Star Trek. Immediately seeing the show's potential, Solow struck a script development deal with Roddenberry on the spot.

Soon, Solow and Roddenberry brought Robert H. Justman on board as assistant director to work on what was to be the first of two Star Trek pilots and, later, to act as associate producer on the series. Together, the three men embarked on an incredible odyssey that would make television history.

With Herb Solow running interference -- both within the closed walls of the studio and between Desilu and NBC -- and Bob Justman handling all phases of weekly production, Star Trek endured its birth pangs. Finally, when Solow hired Roddenberry to produce the initial sixteen episodes ordered, the fledgling series began to assume a life of its own.

Inside Star Trek is a comprehensive look at the development and life of a television and cultural phenomenon. It is also a story no one else could tell. Between them, Solow and Justman had a hand in virtually every aspect of the development and production of Star Trek -- from the battles with NBC and the internal conflicts with studio executives to the behind-the-scenes decisions about actors and their characters, writers, scripts, directors, budgets, and the endless details of weekly television production.

Since 1964, Solow, executive in charge of production for Star Trek, has been silent about the legends, distortions and misrepresentations that grew around the show he developed and sold to NBC, the pilots he developed with Gene Roddenberry, and which he carries in his memory as part of a distinguished career. Bob Justman, as associate producer and then coproducer of Star Trek (and subsequently supervising producer of Star Trek: The Next Generation, among other series) has been a popular speaker at Star Trek conventions, known and loved by fans around the world.

Together, in this book, the two men debunk many of the myths that have developed around Star Trek in the last thirty years as they create new ones based on facts. At last, here is the simple, fascinating and accurate account of a unique television series launched against astronomical odds -- a television series that transported millions of viewers into another world and into an unprecedented, thirty-year, multimedia, multibillion-dollar cultural phenomenon.

At last, the real Star Trek!

Grant Tinker, former Chairman of the Board and C.E.O., NBC, on Inside Star Trek: "Forget everything you ever read or heard about Star Trek. Solow and Justman's dramatic and humorous account of the series's birth, life and premature death is exactly as it all happened."

Gene Roddenberry on Herbert Solow: "Solow, whom I worked with most directly and intimately, was enormously helpful. One of the most pleasant and talented men I have ever had the pleasure to work with in this business." -- February 12, 1965

Gene Roddenberry on bob Justman: "Star Trek could never have been made without your considerable talent and knowledge. Most important of all, I had your friendship." -- October 8, 1968
