Treks to remember

I too am a bit biased about this book... Nikki found me online and asked if I'd write about my Star Trek experiences. Chase Masterson had just come to my house and it was a very surreal experience having a Star Trek personality in my home. I wrote about my first experiences with Star Trek at my baby sitter's house in 1966 all the way up to the 21st century. The book is a fun perspective for new and old fans alike and we're all very grateful to Nikki for putting it together and making it available to the world.

I have to admit a bit of personal bias for this book, as I am 1 of the Storytellers in the book. All that aside I found most of the stories very entertaining, and some of them truely inspirational. I have and will continue to recommend this book to family & friends, to Trek and non Trek fans alike, not just because of the Trek connection, but for the true life stories of others to rise to the occassion and overcome.
