The Worlds of J.R.R. Tolkien

This new book connects the places which inspired Tolkien with their eventual appearances in his work. Organised by theme, it offers an illustrated biography of one of the world's best-loved authors, an exploration of the relationship between worlds real and fantastical, and an inspiration for anyone who wants to follow in Tolkien's footsteps. Featuring over 100 images, the book includes Tolkien's own illustrations, maps, archive images and spectacular present-day photographs.
