Synopsis"all I ask is a tall ship, and a star to steer her by." From the earliest days of explorations, there has always been one tried-and-true way to navigate through uncharted reaches and one to find the way home -- the stars. Ancient mariners prized their star charts, knowing that they could guide them safely into a friendly port or lead them to the reaches of the mysterious East. Modes of transportation have changes but the stars are still our constant. When man took his first step into space armed with the very latest in computers, he took with him the same tool for reading the stars that the men who sailed under canvas carried.When humans launched the first ship designed for long-range missions into the deep waters of interstellar space, the Vulcan High Command provided their star charts for theEnterprise. But Jonathan Archer was not content with relying on the known. Although he used the Vulcan charts, he also added to them, and greatly expanded Starfleet's knowledge of the galaxy. Every generation of starship captain that followed has built on Archer's first steps.Follow the course set by Archer, Kirk, Picard, Sisko, and Janeway. Relive their extraordinary adventures as you find here, for the first time, the star maps that chart the routes these famous explorers took., From Qo'noS to Bajor, from Vulcan to the farthest reaches of the Delta Quadrant, this is a guide to the Star Trek universe. Charts reveal the location of every major world and star, and show the routes of each of the starships featured in the Star Trek series, from Captain Kirk to Captain Archer.
Good, could be a little more specific and detailed however
Great book for fans interested in a map of the Star Trek Universe. Only downsides is the maps themselves could be a little more complete, detailed and specific. They leave a little to be desired but are decent. Recommend, is only book of its class anyhow so it's it or nothing and isn't bad no even though yes a bit lacking leaving some to be desired.
