		This volume reprints the original draft, and several subsequent revisions, of Harlan Ellison's multiple-award-winning, career-defining, critically acclaimed, and seemingly life-ruining Star Trek script, The City on the Edge of Forever.
		Numerous people have taken credit for City's success over the years, and just as many have been more than happy to lay the blame for any perceived faults in the story at Harlan's feet.
		The original description of the Guardians of Forever (not the stone structure seen in the final product) as ancient, monolithic constructs of living stone almost begs a comparison to Vorlons.

		Since its first airing 38 years ago, "City" has managed to simultaneously be one of the most beloved and one of the most controversial episodes of TOS.
		The first truly excellent use of time travel for the series, a touching and tragic love story, and the willingness to not automatically go for the happy ending may have been the first proof that this series was not the science fiction your average television viewer of the time was used to.
		It's been almost 20 years since I read it but I'm certain I remember that the original script for City on the Edge of Forever was printed in Harlan Ellison's book, The Glass Teat II, which is a collection of television columns he wrote.
