A literary detective work about Tolkien's inspiration and sources. Shows how The Lord of the Rings is the result of an ancient story-telling tradition that dates to the dawn of Western culture; and how, by drawing upon the world's primary myths and legends, Tolkien created his own mythology for the twentieth century.
