Deluxe Edition.
A brand new one-volume deluxe, cloth- and leather-bound edition of the final three volumes of 'The History Of Middle-Earth', printed on India paper and set in a slipcase.
J R R Tolkien is famous the world over for his unique literary creation, exemplified in 'The Hobbit', 'The Lord Of The Rings' and 'The Silmarillion'. What is less well known, however, is that he also produced a vast amount of further material that greatly expands upon the mythology and numerous stories of Middle-Earth, and which gives added life to the thousand-year war between the Elves and the evil spirit Morgoth, and his terrifying lieutenant, Sauron.
It was to this enormous task of literary constructing that Tolkien's youngest son and literary heir, Christopher, applied himself to produce the monumental and endlessly fascinating series of twelve books, 'The History Of Middle-Earth'. Epic in scope and extent, and featuring dozens of rare maps and illustrations drawn by J R R Tolkien, this final deluxe volume of the trilogy presents the reader with a unique opportunity to complement their copies of the deluxe editions of 'The Hobbit' and 'The Lord Of The Rings' with a once-in-a-lifetime limited collector's edition.
