Over dit e-boek

A revised and expanded edition of Tolkien’s own Hobbit-inspired poetry, including previously unpublished poems and notes, and beautiful illustrations by Narnia artist Pauline Baynes.

One of the most intriguing characters in The Lord of the Rings, the amusing and enigmatic Tom Bombadil also appears in verses said to have been written by Hobbits and preserved in the “Red Book” with stories of Bilbo and Frodo Baggins and their friends. The Adventures of Tom Bombadil collects these and other poems, mainly concerned with legends and jests of the Shire at the end of the Third Age.

This edition includes earlier versions of some of Tolkien’s poems, a fragment of a prose story with Tom Bombadil, comprehensive notes by acclaimed Tolkien scholars Christina Scull and Wayne G. Hammond, and stunning illustrations by Narnia artist Pauline Baynes.
