Abstract:
Packed with original concept art, this book examines the genesis of a dozen ships from the modern Star trek movies. From the new Enterprise to a fleet of Federation ships that was barely seen, they were designed to be similar but noticeably different to the Enterprises of the past. It also explores the thinking behind Klingon and Romulan ships, and the heavily-armed U.S.S. Vengeance. Readers will discover concepts that were explored and abandoned, as well as the thinking behind the finished designs. The book also features interviews with the concept artists who created the ships.
