Boldly Go - Reflections on a Life of Awe and Wonder

The beloved star of Star Trek, recent space traveler, and living legend William Shatner reflects on the interconnectivity of all things, our fragile bond with nature, and the joy that comes from exploration with "the insights he's gleaned over his long, productive life" (Booklist) in this inspiring, revelatory, and exhilarating collection of essays.

Long before Gene Roddenberry put him on a starship to explore the galaxy, long before he actually did venture to space, William Shatner was gripped by his own quest for knowledge and meaning. Though his eventful life has been nothing short of extraordinary, Shatner is still never so thrilled as when he experiences something that inspires him to simply say, "Wow."

Within these affecting, entertaining, and informative essays, he demonstrates that astonishing possibilities and true wonder are all around us. By revealing stories of his life-some delightful, others tragic-Shatner reflects on what he has learned along the way to his ninth decade and how important it is to apply the joy of exploration to our own lives. "A refreshingly self-aware portrait of a man determined to live every moment to the fullest" (Publishers Weekly), Boldly Go is an unputdownable celebration of all that our miraculous universe holds for us.
