The Lord of the Rings, by JRR Tolkein, is a powerful work of fiction that has captured the imagination for generations. I prepared this version of the classic as a gift for a friend who has been an avid Tolkein reader for over 20 years. Entirely recovered and rebound, this unique edition has silver hinges and decorative copper knotwork. Artifacts representing the major characters in the story adorn the cover, and the leering eye of Sauron, in enamel, glares out at the reader.
