Douglas A. Anderson, a New York State bookseller, prints the text of the third edition of The Hobbit (1966) on the upper inside two thirds of each page, with notes on the outside third of each page; illustrations--either Tolkien's (including color plates in black and white) or 13 from non-American editions--appear at the bottom. Further, Anderson has endnoted a full printing of textual changes by Tolkien. These textual changes will be valuable for students; the foreign illustrations will appeal to general readers. The basic annotations, however, although good, are not all one expects. They record Tolkien's comments on his work; a number of his parallel early poems; a number of linguistic points, often derived from T.A. Shippey's The Road to Middle-earth (CH, Jul '83); and most of the certain sources. But Anderson does not record critical theories, such as Randel Helms's Freudian reading in Tolkien's World (1974). Minor slips include a few failures to give the sources for citations (e.g., p. 111, 314). Anderson has good primary and secondary bibliographies, the former just of books. Recommended for children's literature and general reading collections; limited, but useful, for British literature collections. -J. R. Christopher, Tarleton State University

Honoring the 50th anniversary of the U.S. publication of The Hobbit, this edition offers more than the expected annotation of names, chronology, sources, and commentary (although literary criticism and cross-references to Lord of the Rings are limited). There is a fine introduction to the book's inception and reception, a rune-key, both primary and secondary bibliographies, a wealth of black-and-white illustrations from foreign editions and from Tolkien's own hand, and an appendix detailing all text revisions in the many U.S. and English editions. Though there are omissions (e.g., the Biblical and other traditional English sources for Tolkien's prose style), the scholar and general reader alike should find this commemorative edition both instructive and pleasing.
