In Tolkien's Art , Chance discusses not only such classics as The Hobbit, The Lord of the Rings , and The Silmarillion , but focuses on his minor works as well, outlining in detail the sources and influencesfrom pagan epic to Christian legend-that formed the foundation of Tolkien's masterpieces, his mythology for England.
