traveller1 's review for:
Leonard: My Fifty-Year Friendship with a Remarkable Man
by William Shatner
I am giving this book 5 stars because...
A personal biography of Nimoy by his on and off again friend William Shatner. Shatner mentions that their friendship waned with in the last years of Nimoy's life, as Nimoy cut him out. I suspect that Nimoy was feeling frail and aged, and did not wish to be seen in his weakened and near death state. I have seen that before in men, who were in their last years.
In reading the book I was saddened to learn that Nimoy was an alcoholic. He was high-functioning, and never let his drinking affect his work, but his addiction twisted his life. I also learnt more of the friendship between the two men. They were friends longer and closer than I had known.
A fascinating look at a fascinating man.
Excellent read. Recommended.
