Mussolini:biography Book

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.
