Soft cover. Condition: Very Good to Fine. Painted Front Cover (illustrator). 6th Printing By Publisher. 96 pgs. March/1976, 1st ed! "The enormous popularity of J.R.R.Tolkien's books - particularly The Lord of the Rings - has created one of the largest 'in' circles ever built up around one man's work; at the same time, the critics are in violent disagreement over their value and even their meaning. In the face of this confusion, many no-Tolkien-readers are baffled by buttons that read 'Frodo Lives' and by the special language and subleties that are understood by those who have immersed themselves in the world of the Hobbits." Minor cover creasing. Size: 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" Tall. Book.

It has gone on to be one of the most treasured stories of all time, often dismissed as a children's book but enjoyed as much by adults as children. Like its successor, The Lord of the Rings, this is a story that "grew in the telling", and many characters and story threads present in the published text were completely different when Tolkien first read his story aloud to his young sons as part of their "fireside reads". The book presents for the first time the complete text of the original manuscript of The Hobbit. As well as recording the many changes made to the story both before and after publication, it examines - chapter-by-chapter - why those changes were made and how they reflect Tolkien's ever-growing concept of Middle-earth. The original account of where Bilbo meets Gollum and steals the ring from him is reprinted here in its proper context for the first time in over fifty years, as are many little-known illustrations and previously unpublished maps for the story by Tolkien himself. Also featured are extensive annotations and essays on the date of composition, the influence of Tolkien's professional and early mythological writings, the imaginary geography, and Tolkien's later revisions. Finally, this edition makes available for the first time the text of Tolkien's attempt to recast The Hobbit into the style of The Lord of the Rings"---, , any image directly beside this listing is the actual book and not a generic photo ///NOT SIGNED ---GUARANTEED to be AVAILABLE/// ---sizes are approximate (generally within 1/8 inch)--- Size: 5.75w x 9h Inches.
