The Hobbit by J. R. R. Tolkien, hand-bound in genuine leather by LeatheredLines. First published in 1937, Tolkien's classic follows Bilbo Baggins, a comfort-loving hobbit, who is swept off on an adventure with the wizard Gandalf and thirteen dwarves to reclaim their treasure from the dragon Smaug. Along the way he meets trolls, elves and goblins, and wins a riddle game against Gollum that leaves him holding a mysterious ring. The perfect gateway to Middle-earth.
About this leather-bound edition
Our binders work each cover by hand: genuine leather is fitted over firm boards, the spine is lettered in gold-tone foil and finished with traditional decorative detail. Every copy carries the small natural variations that come with real leather and handcraft.
The thickness and weight of the finished book depend on the length of this particular title. Longer works make a noticeably thicker volume, while shorter works are slimmer.
