A classic

This edition has the original cover design and line drawings by the Author. It does not contain the color illustrations. If you want an authentic Hobbit as intended by Tolkein, you want tnis edition, or the larger edition with the green cover which also contains his color illustrations.Read full review

The Hobbit

It had been 50+ years since I first read Tolkien’s “The Hobbit” and love every physical aspect of this book which appears newly printed. I don’t find a print date, only list of copyrights from original in 1937. The dust cover in vivid green, blue & white is appealing. I particularly appreciate Tolkien’s original maps in front & back of book along several draws throughout the book. But it is the STORY which sweeps me along. This is a book to take a place of honor on my bookshelves, as I cannot afford one from the original 1937 printingRead full review

Great Literature. Great Book

This is a replacement for a copy I've had since I was in high school that my adult daughter wanted. I don't even know how many times I've read this. It is an annual event.

1997 print

Everywhere it says this is the 1967 or something but it was printed in 1997. Fine it's a great book and attractive. But nobody is kidding the correct date. 5 star book, 5 star print, 1 star product information and transparency.Read full review
