Summary: ST: Enterprise Logs
Comment: Star Trek: Enterprise Logs edited by Carol Greenberg is an anthology of adventure and exploration spanning six centuries and ten captains of one proud tradition the appellation known as Enterprise. I found that this book to be both historical and imaginative. Historical in the sense that one Enterpise fought in the Revolutionary War for America's freedom to the command of Jean-Luc Picard on U.S.S. Enterprise 1701-D.
This book covers both seafaring to spacefaring vessels all with the same name and a compelling story with each captain trusted to bring her to battle and back home again. As this is an anthology, the captains are very interesting to read about. Captains Irrael Daniel Dickerson, Osborne B. Hardison, Robert April, Christopher Pike, James T. Kirk, Will Decker, Spock, John Harriman, Rachel Garrett and Jean-Luc Picard are all accounted for here with an interesting tale to tell about the ship they command.
Since this is an anthology we have different authors lending their expertise to each story giving the reader a feel that each captain is speaking. The authors are: Diane Carey, Greg Cox, Jerry Oltion, Michael Jan Friedman, Diane Duane, A.C. Crispin, Peter David, Robert Greenberger, and John Vorholt.
I found this book to be very enjoyable, readable with a flowing narrative, and intriguingly engrossing. The first two stories were right out of America History focusing on the captain of the ship, thus, giving the reader insights into the noteworthiness of these historical figures. As the other stories, imagination rules the story with a heavy dose of the humanity.
The book is a very fast read with enjoyable adventure.

Summary: Just the perfect book while cooling your heels...
Comment: ...stuck on jury duty (sigh). Read this last summer (2000) and enjoyed practically all the submissions tracing the history of the Enterprise Captains, from the first Enterprise (during the Revolutionary War) to Picard. Some very imaginative entries, including Capt. Harriman (Enterprise-B) and Capt. Garrett (Enterprise-C). Highly recommended...

Summary: I was disappointed in this book :-(
Comment: I found this book when I was buying the Captains table book. It was one of those, "if you like this, you'll like these too" lists Amazon gives us. Hey! It looked great! Pictures of three Starships, a Revolutionary war schooner, and a Aircraft Carrier! "The History of the Enterprise!" It says. I am a Star Trek Fan. I have been from when I was very young. I watch and read Trek books for the adventure and action. There is very little of that in these stories. These stories seem to be morality plays more than adventure stories. I feel it only deserves 2 stars because only 2 of the stories in this book are OK. And they are stories about the Starship captains you hardly ever hear about. Lastly, these are extremely short, short stories. Not barely worth the price. Before you buy on-line, go see it in a store, and look it over and read some of it. Then decide.
