New York Times Bestseller
Goodreads Choice Award Winner
Leonard Nimoy and William Shatner first crossed paths as actors on the set of The Man from U.N.C.L.E. Little did they know that their next roles as Spock and Captain Kirk, in a new science fiction television series, would shape their lives in ways no one could have anticipated. In seventy-nine television episodes of Star Trek and six feature films, they grew to know each other more than most friends could ever imagine.
Over the course of half a century, Shatner and Nimoy saw each other through personal and professional highs and lows. In this powerfully emotional book, Shatner tells the story of a man who was his friend for five decades, recounting anecdotes and untold stories of their lives on and off set, as well as gathering stories from others who knew Nimoy well, to present a full picture of a rich life.
As much a biography of Nimoy as a story of their friendship, Leonard is a uniquely heartfelt book written by one legendary actor in celebration of another.

David Fisher is the author of more than twenty New York Times bestsellers, including William Shatner's autobiography Up Till Now. He lives in New York.
"This is a book Star Trek fans will love." ―The Philadelphia Inquirer

"Touching on Nimoy’s other pursuits, including his photography, poetry, writing, and directing, Shatner offers up a lovely and moving tribute to his beloved friend." ―Booklist
“Essentially a traditional biography, but one that is filtered through the prism of its author’s friendship with his subject.” ―The Washington Post
"Trekkies will want this for the insider stories from Captain Kirk himself, but fans of candid, emotion-filled biographies will adore this account because it's a treasure trove of information." ―Library Journal (starred review)
"A resonant retrospective of one of pop culture's great partnerships." ―Publishers Weekly
