An indispensable and comprehensive guide to JRR Tolkien's 'The Hobbit' covering all the characters, places and objects included in the seminal book that first introduced the world of Middle Earth. The prequel to 'The Lord of the Rings' (1954), 'The Hobbit' (1937) is an extraordinarily rich work that sets up the fantasy world that would be built upon at greater length in Tolkien's later books. Peter Jackson's trilogy of films based on this single work have helped to create a new generation of Tolkien fans. This encyclopedia includes a hundred entries spread out over seven chapters describing all the book's characters, the places Bilbo visited, the creatures met during the journey, magical items and great legendary myths that fed Tolkien's imagination.
