Summary
"Star Trek is modeled on the world of the 'British Golden Age of Sail' as it is commonly found in the genre of sea fiction. This book re-historicizes and remaps the origins of the franchise and subsequently the entirety of its fictional world--the Star Trek continuum--on an as yet uncharted transatlantic bearing"-- Provided by publisher.
