Overview
Renowned biographer Michael White looks back over the little-known life of this most respected of writers. In revealing detail, he describes Tolkien's early childhood in South Africa, the tragic early death of his parents, and his close relationship with his younger brother as they struggled to find their way in a world filled with kindly but distant aunts. Tolkien's eventual academic success and his many years as a Professor at Oxford, provide the backdrop to the creation of The Lord of the Rings which was destined to become the biggest selling novel of all time.
