A reset edition of Tolkien's epic novel, containing specially commissioned new maps. By turns, comic and homely, epic and diabolic, the narrative moves through countless changes of scene and character in an imaginary world, a world in which Tolkien created a vast new mythology.

The author:
John Ronald Reuel Tolkien was born on the 3rd January, 1892 at Bloemfontein in the Orange Free State, but at the age of four he and his brother were taken back to England by their mother. After his father's death the family moved to Sarehole, on the south-eastern edge of Birmingham. Tolkien spent a happy childhood in the countryside and his sensibility to the rural landscape can clearly be seen in his writing and his pictures.
