Krátky popis
This sumptuous gift set includes a replica of the very rare first
edition of The Hobbit, the only edition where one can now read the
original version of the story before Tolkien re-edited it to become
the one enjoyed by readers since 1951. The Hobbit was published on
21 September 1937, with a print run of 1,500 copies. With a
beautiful cover design, nearly a dozen black &,amp, white
illustrations and two black &,amp, red maps by the author
himself, the book proved to be popular and was reprinted shortly
afterwards.History was already being made. The scarcity of the
first edition has resulted in copies commanding huge prices, way
beyond the reach of most Tolkien fans. In addition, subsequent
changes to the text - particularly those to chapter 5, when Tolkien
decided in 1947 to revise the text to bring it better into accord
with events as they were developing in its `sequel', The Lord of
the Rings - mean that the opportunity to read the book in its
original form and format has become quite difficult.This special
commemorative gift set includes the first edition, so that readers
of all ages - not just `children between the ages of 5 and 9', as
Rayner Unwin famously declared in his report on the original
submission - can finally enjoy Tolkien's story as it originally
appeared. It also includes an exclusive CD of archive recordings
that capture Tolkien reading from The Hobbit, a special copy of
Thror's map which reveals the secret moon-runes when held to the
light, and an accompanying booklet that relates the history of The
Hobbit, and includes connected writings by JRR Tolkien.
