This collection will entertain all who appreciate the art of masterful letter writing. The Letters of J.R.R Tolkien sheds much light on J.R.R. Tolkien's creative genius and grand design for the creation of a whole new world: Middle-earth.

Featuring a radically expanded index, this volume contains 354 letters, dating between October 1914, when Tolkien was an undergraduate at the University of Oxford, and August 29, 1973, four days before his death. This is a valuable research tool for all fans wishing to trace the evolution of The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings.

      Tolkien's works have continually managed to remain popular. But anyone who recently caught the Internet-exclusive first scenes from director Peter Jackson's forthcoming live-action feature The Lord of the Rings knows that all the orcs in Isengard won't be able to keep new and old fans from tearing everything Tolkien-related off library shelves once this film hits theaters in 2001 (remember where you heard it first). Start gathering these titles early, beginning with Carpenter's 1977 biography and 1981 collection of Tolkien's letters now with a newly expanded index.
