ISBN10: 0395315557, ISBN13: 9780395315552, [publisher: Houghton Mifflin] Hardcover This collection of letters by the master of fantasy will entertain all who appreciate the art of masterful letter writing. The Letters of J.R.R Tolkien sheds much light on Tolkien's creative genius and grand design for the creation of a whole new world: Middle-earth; full of creative charactors, many new langages, and fearsome beasts. This is a great tool for those wanting a little insight into Tolkiens' mind as he was writing the LotR. Near fine, foxing on fly leaf and edges of pages, other than that it is an excellent copy. DJ very good to excellent, unclipped with a clear mylar wrap. Back has residue from some type of sticker.
