Tolkien: Treasures

Autor Catherine McIlwaine
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 3 ian 2019
This beautifully illustrated book showcases the highlights of the Tolkien archives held at the Bodleian Library. From J. R. R.

Tolkien: Treasures sheds light on the extraordinary genius and imagination that brought us Middle-earth, with all its Elves, Dwarves, Orcs, Ringwraiths, Wizards, and, of course, Hobbits.

Recenzii

"Probably the finest reproduction of Tolkien's art (and maps), published to date. The true glory of this book is the illustrations, all of which seem to be in true colour, often accompanied by enlarged details . . .Tolkien: Treasures  is definitely worth purchasing."
