Having loved the "Lord Of
Having loved the "Lord Of The Rings" since I first read it in college in the 1960s, I tried to see the Catholicism in the book, but having been a Catholic for just a few years having converted in my elderly time on earth, I had yet to gain enough knowledge and awareness to see it. I found this book not just well written but it opened my eyes to what was right in front of me. Very nice.
