- While shopping in Boston last week I came across a large coffee table type book
- whose title was *something like* 'The Illustrated Encyclopedia of Middle Earth'.
- The book was organized around topics such as the geography of Middle Earth, flora
- and fauna, etc. I found it very interesting, but I didn't buy it because I
- assumed I could find it anywhere...
-
- Well, now that I'm back in LA I realize what a mistake I made. I can't find it
- anywhere. The Books in Print database has no entry for this book by title, or by
- keyword search on encyclopedia, middle, earth, tolkien, etc. Either this book is
- out of print or its printed outside the US.
-
- Tolkien fans, help! If you can provide me with further information about this
- book, especially verification that it is in print somewhere, please e-mail me at
- the address below. Note: I am not looking for 'The Atlas of Middle Earth'. The
- book I saw was something different. TIA.
