The Lord of the Rings Location Guidebook - Softcover

“With its maps, directions, visitor information and exclusive stills of the locatuibs as they apper in reality, this was obviously a labour of love for the author, who has bent over backwards to make this the definitive Rings guide...it’s easy to se why this was voted New Zealand Book of the Year!”
