J. R. R. Tolkien: The Mind Behind The Rings (Paperback)

J. R. R. Tolkien was a genius, but do you really know about the mind behind the rings? In this biography, you'll get a glimpse into Tolkien's life as a man, intellectual, and artist, and better understand his remarkable accomplishments.

Previously published as a title in the Christian Encounters series, this renewed edition includes updated information about TV series and films inspired by Tolkien's literary creations, and a discussion guide that can be used individually or in a book club setting.

Inside you'll read and learn about:

• The inspiration and stories that influenced The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit
• Tolkien's service in the war and his Christian faith
• TV shows and film adaptations inspired by Tolkien
• The literary giant's childhood, coming-of-age stories, and the hurdles he overcame

J. R. R. Tolkien: The Mind Behind the Rings is a great addition for summer reading lists, history buffs, fans of Amazon's The Lord of the Rings streaming series, and loyal Tolkien followers.
