Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Fine. 1st Edition. The first ever review of the Maps of the Wilderland on the front and back fly-leaves of The Hobbit, leading to the discovery that Professor Tolkien drew these imaginary maps from the Map of Wales back to front, or in reverse. This develops into a fascinating exercise in comparative map-reading and detection, including investigation into the allusions borrowed by Professor Tolkien in the imaginary tale, some from the ancient fairy tales of Wales recorded by the US Consul in Wales,Wirt Sikes, and written in 1880. The work is purposefully divided into Nine Parts, with three Parts subdivided into three site groupings: The Misty Mountains including Goblin-town alongside the Old Ford, the Carrock and the Iron Hills; Esgaroth, the Long Lake and the Lonely Mountain; with Mount Gundabad, the Grey Hills and the Withered Heath completing the picture of The Wilderland. The Author identifies all Nine places and more on the Map of Wales, revealed by the ¿Magic Mirror Maps. With four colour illustrations within the work. A UK first edition, first impression. A fine, tight copy in a fine, unclipped, unfaded wrapper. No inscriptions, no blemishes. A handsome copy. SIGNED by the author to the title page. Paypal accepted. Signed by Author(s).
