Tolkien and the Great War by John Garth
A new biography exploring J.R.R. Tolkiens wartime experiences and their impact on his life and his writing of The Lord of The Rings."Very much the best book about JRR Tolkien that has yet been writtenEven if you are not a Lord of the Rings fan, I commend this book to you. It is all so interesting in itself, and I have rarely read a book which so intelligently graphed the relation between a writer's inner life and his outward circumstances."
