Tolkien's Ordinary Virtues: Exploring the Spiritual Themes of the Lord of the Rings

Thirty meditations on the virtues to be found in J. R. R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings trilogy. From the back cover: In the journey from birth to death, you will be asked to leave behind everything you have known, and to bear what treasure you have to an uncertain end. When the road is invisible, impassable or crowded with foes, the tale of Frodo and his friends offers hope that you will be given the strength and the help you need to keep walking, as well as a reminder that you are not alone.
