Star Trek: U.S.S. Enterprise Haynes Manual

The U.S.S. Enterprise is without doubt the most famous starship in history. The vessels that have carried the name have saved the galaxy countless times and her captains, including Archer, Kirk, and Picard, have been legendary.

This Haynes Manual provides in-depth information about these extraordinary ships, from the Enterprise NX-01, to Captain Kirk’s Enterprise NCC-1701 and Captain Picard’s Enterprise NCC-1701-D including histories of each vessel, technical information about their systems, and discussions of key technologies such as transporters and warp-speed travel. Find out exactly what powered these ships, how they were armed and what it took to operate them.

The book features newly created artwork throughout, including full-ship cutaways of each Enterprise, key systems, and interior locations together with detailed new exterior views by one of STAR TREK’s original visual effects artists.

This Haynes Manual is fully authorized by CBS and technical consultant Michael Okuda, who spent thirteen years working on STAR TREK TV series and movies.

Big Disappointment

By M. Tennaro - November 12, 2010

Though billed as "An inside look at the most famous starship", this book's cutaways and set plans are paltry, even for the more well known ship interiors like the Movie Enterprise, or the Enterprise D. Plans for the lesser known vessels have even less detailed coverage. If you were expecting the kind of detailed technical floor plans and cutaways of former titles like the original Star Trek Technical Manual, or Mr. Scott's Guide to the Enterprise, you will find this book quite the disappointment. It in no way compares.

The concept for the book was terrific, the actual product does not deliver on the promise of that original concept. A shame.

Expecting more!

By Ragnar Danneskj?ld - November 12, 2010

I was expecting more of a "Haynes" feel. I have several Haynes manuals, and the only thing it shares in common would be the logo and coloring on the cover! Honestly...not worth the money.

Nice book thin on data

By Larry - November 5, 2010

While the Haynes Repair Manual for the Starship Enterprise sounds wonderful on paper in real life the book is quite thin, overpriced, with medicore pictures. While I love the idea of how to do maintence on the Enterprise, this book isn't it. I'm not impressed- this is a "Hack book, made to make money off the fans" rather than an actual book of what would be expected in real life.

Dissapointed. Would not recommend purchase.
