40. J.R.R Tolkien
• In 1892 John Ronald
Reuel Tolkien was
born in Bloemfontien,
Orange Free State,
South Africa.

41. In 1915 J.R.R Tolkien served in World War I
as a second lieutenant with the Lancashire
Fusiliers. I think a good author is one that
serves his country and is willing to do that and
was not forced.

42. The Hobbit
• In his newest novel
The Hobbit (LEFT) in
1937 J.R.R Tolkien
released September
21. The Hobbit sells
out by Christmas.
• He also starts to write
The Lord Of The
Rings.

43. 1954-1956
• In 1954-1956 J.R.R
Tolkien released the
three Lord Of The
Rings novels.

44. 1916
In 1916 Tolkien marries Edith Bratt and leaves for France
where he fought in 1916 a battle called Somme Stricken. He got
a bad fever 5 months later and returned home.

45. 1973
In 1973 Tolkien dies at age 81. At that time his last
novels are published. They were the 12 volumes of
middle earth and The Silmarillion.

46. Tolkiens famous words
"Three rings for the Eleven-kings under the sky,
--Seven for the Dwarf-lords in their halls of stone,
Nine for Mortal Men doomed to die,
--One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadow lie.
--One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them,
--One Ring to bring the all in the darkness bind them
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadow lie."
(from The Lord of the Rings)

47. My opinion
I think that Tolkien had a good life. I have
read 3 of his books and loved them all. He
is one of my favorite authors. Tolkien had a
very good attitude and I look up to it.

49. To the beginning
