In order to emphasize the link between the two works, aside from the foreword by Cushman, the exterior book design corresponds with that of These Are The Voyages: TOS, and for which Gurian had collaborated with some of his former editorial co-workers at Jacobs Brown Press. The name and logo of the publishing house were derived from the name Gurian has given to his pet dog, "Minka", the "most passionate TOS fan in my household," as per Gurian.
