Best known as Mr. Sulu, helmsman of the Starship Enterprise™ and captain of the Starship Excelsior, George Takei is beloved by millions as part of the command team that has taken audiences to new vistas of adventure in Star Trek®—the unprecedented television and feature film phenomenon.

From the program’s birth in the changing world of the 1960s and death at the hands of the network to its rebirth in the hearts and minds of loyal fans, the Star Trek story has blazed its own path into our recent cultural history, leading to a series of blockbuster feature films and three new versions of Star Trek for television.

The Star Trek story is one of boundless hope and crushing disappointment, wrenching rivalries and incredible achievements. It is also the story of how, after nearly thirty years, the cast of characters from a unique but poorly rated television show have come to be known to millions of Americans and people around the world as family.

For George Takei, the Star Trek adventure is intertwined with his personal odyssey through adversity in which four-year-old George and his family were forced by the United States government into internment camps during World War II.

Star Trek means much more to George Takei than an extraordinary career that has spanned thirty years. For an American whose ideals faced such a severe test, Star Trek represents a shining embodiment of the American Dream—the promise of an optimistic future in which people from all over the world contribute to a common destiny.©1994 George Takei; (P)2004 Simon & Schuster Inc.

This book is so well written and well narrated. Mr. Takei has the knack to write as if he is talking with you. You feel every bit of emotion that he went through. I definitely recommend it to all.

George has been such a force for good in his lifetime. Through relentless work and indomitable advocacy for the humanity in all of us. His embracing of Gene’s vision of what our future could be and his dedication to the many fans that share that hope is inspirational. George Takei isn’t just building a legacy for himself, he’s striving to build the future world into what he knows we can become.

Gripping and deeply touching

was glad to hear it read from the author as he has a great voice and added all the appropriate emphasis and mannerisms, but it just seemed short

I don't have the paper book for comparison but it seems like the audio should have been at least twice as long since he had such a diverse & interesting past

short but interesting

I adore George Takei. My wife took me to see him speak at the Mondavi Center a couple of years ago. He is just wonderful. If they would put James Doohan’s autobiography on Audible, I could listen to all of them.

Very interesting, informative and entertaining. Loved the first hand account of his childhood at the Japanese internment camps. George is a very intelligent and diverse and talented man. And of course the Star
Trek saga at its beginning. Only wish the story was longer, I wasn't ready for it to end.
