J.M. Ford

J. M. Ford was a 23rd century human writer. His most noted works were in collaboration with distinguished scholar and ambassador Emanuel Tagore before Tagore's death.

Unable to obtain on-the-record verification of certain suppressed details of events surrounding the Dissolution Babel crisis (due to tight lips by most knowledgable surviving persons and excessive classification of records), Ford assembled the facts as best he could and released the story as a novel, The Final Reflection. (TOS novel The Final Reflection).

For his other most noted work, An Informal Guide to the Klingon Empire, Dr. Tagore was not only a source but was credited as co-author as well. (FASA RPG sourcebooks The Klingons and The Four Years War).


 * "J. M. Ford" is, of course, an in-universe counterpart of The Final Reflection author John M. Ford.
