From the publisher
So who was J. R. R. Tolkien, the maker of Middle-earth? In his own words, he says, 'I am a Christian,' and plainly states that he wrote The Lord of the Rings 'to be consonant with Christian thought and belief.' This is why Tolkien's Christian faith is the linchpin for fully understanding and appreciating his voluminous writings. This biography is intended to show readers that Tolkien's Christian faith was central to his life and work, personally, professionally, and, most importantly, creatively.
