What Our Customers Say...

Description

First Edition, Illustrated, Original Binding, Publishers' Original Binding, With Dustwrapper

The first edition, fifth printing. 

With the publisher's original unclipped dust wrapper. 

A lovely copy of J. R. R. Tolkien's epic tales of Middle-earth, the fantasy setting of which much of the English author's stories, such as 'The Hobbit' and 'The Lord of the Rings' take place. 

The story is one of Tolkien's three "great tales" set in the First Age of Middle-earth, edited from manuscripts that were originally started in the late 1910s and revised over time. 

Beautifully illustrated by Alan Lee, including eight coloured plates, numerous in-text pencil sketches and a folding map to the rear.

Condition
