Reviews
"The second movie installment of Lord of the Rings should generate yet further interest in the question of what J. R. R. Tolkien thought he was up to with that remarkable tale. And that, in turn, should generate interest in Bradley J. Birzer's new book, J. R. R. Tolkien's Sanctifying Myth: Understanding Middle-earth."
