This book is a magnificent collection of the Master's own thoughts and words. It gives a fascinating insight into Tolkien's personal life, as well additional details of middle earth that are not in the books. It shows clearly how Tolkien could hammer out a very long and involved letter with ease. It captures how the written word was truly his medium. I can't imagine his son in a fox hole in the midst of WWII reading brand new LOTR chapters that nobody else had seen yet. A must have, for any Tolkien admirer.
