Review Quotes:
'The..essays...[are] remarkable for their originality and thoroughness and are important contributions to the study of Tolkien's rhetorical artistry... [the] result is a handsomely and carefully edited book that is worth reading and--in my case--re-reading.' - Thomas Honegger, Friedrich-Schiller-University
