A comprehensive, authoritative, in depth and
entertaining biography of one of the greatest and most influential
fantasy authors in modern time, J.R.R. Tolkien.
In this informed an entertaining account, renowned biographer
Michael White delves into the little-known life of one of the most
treasured and enduring authors of our time, J.R.R. Tolkien.
In absorbing and revealing detail, White describes Tolkien’s
life — from his childhood years and the tragic early death of his
parents; his burgeoning romance with Edith Brett; fighting on the
front lines in WWII; his many years as an Oxford academic, where
the idea of the Hobbit struck him while marking a term paper; to
his friendship with C.S. Lewis and the founding of the group “The
Inklings”; and why The Lord of the Rings became the most
influential book in the late sixties counter-culture, one of the
most respected and most-read trilogies ever written, and the center
of a major film phenomenon.
With 16 pages of black and white photos.
