This new and searching study of J. R. R. Tolkien's works was written before his death. In it, the author breaks new ground, relating Tolkien's scholarly works to his great imaginative creations and presenting the famous lecture on Beowulf as the forerunner of his fiction in its insistence on the worth of heroes and monsters. Tolkien's World is sure to arouse interest, enthusiasm, and perhaps controversy among scholars and all those who admire Tolkien's work.
