"Tolkien, Race, and Racism in Middle-earth is still an extremely valuable contribution to Tolkien Studies, and it represents the most thorough treatment thus far of these matters. . Sturat's book provides important research for such acknowledgement and analysis, and is therefore a worthy addition to the Tolkien scholar's library." (Robert T. Tally, Mythlore, Vol. 41 (1), October, 2022)More details

The file format PDF always displays a book page identically on any hardware. This makes PDF suitable for complex layouts such as those used in textbooks and reference books (images, tables, columns, footnotes). Unfortunately, on the small screens of e-readers or smartphones, PDFs are rather annoying, requiring too much scrolling.
