Tolkien and the Peril of War

Birmingham is proud of its very close connections with world renowned author JRR Tolkien. The Birmingham Tolkien Group has as one of its members RS Blackham who has written a number of illustrated books on Tolkien. Bob has recently published his latest book 'Tolkien and the Peril of War'.

I have read this excellent work and there is much new and interesting material therein. Bob is also giving an illustrated talk under the auspices of the Kings Heath Local History Society entitled 'JRR Tolkien: The War Years 1914 - 1918'. The talk is on Wednesday October 19th at 7-30 at Kings Heath Community Centre, Heathfield Road. The admission charge to non-members is £1. Well worth hearing.
