Book Description
The Fellowship of the Ring, part one of J.R.R. Tolkien"s epic masterpiece, first reached these shores on October 21, 1954, arriving, as C. S. Lewis proclaimed, "like lightning from a clear sky." Fifty years and nearly one hundred million American readers later comes a beautiful new one-volume collector"s edition befitting the stature of this crown jewel of our list. With a text fully corrected under the supervision of Christopher Tolkien to meet the author"s exacting wishes, two large-format fold-out maps, a ribbon placemarker, gilded page edges, a color insert depicting Tolkien's own paintings of the Book of Mazarbul and exceptionally elegant and sturdy overall packaging housed within an attractive slipcase, this edition is the finest we"ve ever produced.

I'll probably never "finish". I find reading J.R.R.'s masterpiece quite tedious.
Have read all three in high school & have reread the series at least twice.
I had to buy the boxed set when the movies came out. I have very old, very delicate copies of each book from a 1967 printing with the foreward by Peter S. Beagle, but they have been read so often that they are crumbling away.
