The World of J.R.R. Tolkien

This one doesn't delve into any one topic or theme super extensively, which is a shame since there's so much to unpack here. Still, it did provide some solid history and analysis of the series that definitely gave me a deeper appreciation for Middle-earth and all that went into its creation. I suppose overall this is a good appetizer if you're looking to dip your toe into the wider Tolkien discourse.
