J.R.R. Tolkien boeken
The Atlas of Middle-Earth - revised edition
Auteur: Karen Wynn Fonstad
Type: paperback
ISBN: 0-395-53516-6
Beschrijving:
Karen Wynn Fonstad's The Atlas of Middle-Earth is an
essential volume that will enchant all Tolkien fans. Here is
the definitive guide to the geography of Middle-earth, from
its founding in the Elder Days through the Third Age,
including the journeys of Bilbo, Frodo, and the Fellowship of
the Ring.
Authentic and updated -- nearly one third of the maps are
new, and the text is fully revised -- the atlas illuminates the
enchanted world created in The Silmarillion, The Hobbit,
and The Lord of the Rings.
Hundreds of two-color maps and diagrams survey the
journeys of the principal characters day by day --battles,
castles, forests, far lands, distinctive landforms, climate,
vegetation and population.
"Absolutely indispensable... In its scope and coverage it is a
masterful work, a fitting monument to the talents and
imagination of the cartographer and of the man who
invented these lands." -- Mythprint, Mythopoeic Society
Karen Wynn Fonstad is a noted cartographer who has her
master's degree in geography from the University of
