Star Trek and the British Age of Sail - The Maritime Influence Throughout the Series and Films (Paperback)

Clear all moorings, one-half impulse power, and set course for a
mare incognitum. A popular culture artifact of the New
Frontier/Space Race era, Star Trek is often mistakenly viewed as a
Space Western. However, the Western format is not what governs the
actual worldbuilding of Star Trek, which was, after all, also
pitched as `Hornblower in space'. The future of 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. Star Trek and the
British Age of Sail re-historicizes and remaps the origins of Star
Trek and subsequently the entirety of its fictional world-the Star
Trek continuum-on an as yet uncharted transatlantic bearing.
