Christina Scull & Wayne G. Hammond – The J.R.R. Tolkien Companion and Guide – HarperCollins Hardcover Set

Two-Volume Hardcover Set – Chronology & Reader’s Guide – Sealed

A handsome and authoritative two-volume hardcover set of The J.R.R. Tolkien Companion and Guide by Christina Scull and Wayne G. Hammond, Tolkien’s foremost bibliographers and scholars. This indispensable reference work provides the most comprehensive chronological and contextual guide to the life, writings, and legendarium of J.R.R. Tolkien.

This set consists of the two standard volumes:
• Chronology
• Reader’s Guide
Together they offer an unparalleled resource for collectors, scholars, and serious readers of Tolkien, covering biographical detail, publication history, textual development, and detailed commentary on Tolkien’s works.

This is the HarperCollins hardcover edition, issued as a matched set and bound in the publisher’s black cloth with gilt lettering and devices. Both volumes are housed together and remain factory sealed in the original shrink-wrap, as issued.

The HarperCollins edition is widely regarded for its high production quality and is a cornerstone reference in any serious Tolkien library. Unlike later paperback or mixed-format issues, this is the full hardcover scholarly set.

Condition

Both volumes are in New / As Issued condition, still sealed. The bindings are sharp, the cloth clean and unfaded, and the gilt bright. Minor superficial marks visible on the shrink-wrap only, with no impact on the books themselves.

An essential Tolkien reference set, here offered sealed and untouched — increasingly difficult to find in this condition.
