Summary: The Original Generation's Chronicle
Comment: The last revised edition of the Star Trek Compendium, from 1993, is a wonderful resource book about the first series. The adventures of Captain Kirk, (William Shatner), Mr. Spock (Leonard Nimoy), Dr. "Bones" McCoy (DeForest Kelly) and the rest of the original crew will always hold a special place for me. After all, none of the other spin-offs, would have been possible, without this show paving the way.
Written by Allan Asherman, the book is a fun trip through the early years of the saga, created by former arline pilot Gene Roddenberry. The book takes readers from the original pitch to NBC-TV, through both pilots (The Cage and Where No Man Has Gone Before), all of the 78 other episodes from 1966-1969, syndication and the growing fandom of the 70s, the short-lived animated series ('73-'74), the aborted Phase II television series, and all six motion pictures featuring just the "Classic Cast" The book has episode/film synopses, behind the scenes stories, and fun trivia. The guide has over 125 black and white photographs and a total of 182 pages (including index)
The compendium is highly recomended to any generation of Trek fan

Summary: Another must for all trekkies
Comment: This book covers all of the episodes of the Original Series and all of the movies up to Star Trek V: The Final Frontier. A great reference book for even those who only just care for the Original Series but prefer the later serieses (like me!).
Rating: 5
Summary: What a Fabulous Resource!
Comment: This book does exactly what it says.... There is great preliminary information and rare pictures of the beginnings of the series. Then, you get writer, director, principle characters, and descriptions of each episode. You also get information on syndication, conventions, the second series, and the first five movies.
