J. R. R. Tolkien is one of the most beloved and enigmatic writers of the twentieth century, yet surprisingly little is known about the personal life of the author of The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings. After a traumatic childhood, Tolkien experienced the bloody trenches of World War I, then lived most of his life as an Oxford scholar in a cloistered academic community. In this fascinating illustrated biography, author Daniel Grotta examines how much of Tolkien's personal experience fired his incredible imagination and led to the creation of Middle-earth and its inhabitants. This edition features full-color illustrations by the Brothers Hildebrandt, whose conceptions of Middle-earth and its denizens have brought Tolkien's life's work to vivid life for legions of fans around the world.

Biography of J.R.R. Tolkien Architect of the Middle Earth
Why did I not get the edition with pictures? I think that would have helped my rating a lot. Much of the information is common Tolkienite knowledge now, but it probably was not when the book was written. Unfortunately, it is an "unoffical" biography, written not only without the consent of the Tolkien family, but against their express wishes that it not be written, and I think a lot the the information is guesswork and conjecture.
