A deluxe edition of J.R.R. Tolkien's epic tale featuring a
beautiful leatherette cover. One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to
find them, One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them
In ancient times the Rings of Power were crafted by the
Elven-smiths, and Sauron, the Dark Lord, forged the One Ring,
filling it with his own power so that he could rule all others. But
the One Ring was taken from him, and though he sought it throughout
Middle-earth, it remained lost to him. After many ages it fell by
chance into the hands of the hobbit Bilbo Baggins.
From Sauron's fastness in the Dark Tower of Mordor, his power
spread far and wide. Sauron gathered all the Great Rings to him,
but always he searched for the One Ring that would complete his
dominion.
When Bilbo reached his eleventy-first birthday he disappeared,
bequeathing to his young cousin Frodo the Ruling Ring and a
perilous quest: to journey across Middle-earth, deep into the
shadow of the Dark Lord, and destroy the Ring by casting it into
the Cracks of Doom.
The Lord of the Rings tells of the great quest undertaken by Frodo
and the Fellowship of the Ring: Gandalf the Wizard; the hobbits
Merry, Pippin, and Sam; Gimli the Dwarf; Legolas the Elf; Boromir
of Gondor; and a tall, mysterious stranger called Strider.
This edition includes the fiftieth anniversary fully corrected text
setting an extensive new index.
J.R.R. Tolkien (1892-1973), beloved throughout the world as the
creator of The Hobbit, The Lord of the Rings, and The Silmarillion,
was a professor of Anglo-Saxon at Oxford, a fellow of Pembroke
College, and a fellow of Merton College until his retirement in
1959. His chief interest was the linguistic aspects of the early
English written tradition, but while he studied classic works of
the past, he was creating a set of his own.
