Books like Good-Bye to All That by Robert Graves


Good-Bye to All That is the original 1929 autobiography of English author Robert Graves, detailing his wartime experiences in the trenches of the First World War. The 1957 revision removed many of the raw, personal reflections and references to Graves's then-partner, poet Laura Riding, altering the tone and context of the narrative. This edition presents the unedited 1929 text, enhanced with an introduction and notes by Graves's nephew and biographer, offering readers insight into the author's early life and the literary history surrounding the work.

I am in fact a hobbit by 6611989|Perry C. Bramlett book cover

πŸ“˜ I am in fact a hobbit

"John Ronald Reuel Tolkien (1892-1973) was a brilliant writer who continues to leave his imaginative imprint on the mind and hearts of readers. He was once called the "creative equivalent of a people," and for more than sixty years his Middle-earth tales have captivated and delighted readers of all ages from all over the world. The Hobbit has long been recognized as a children's fantasy classic, and the heroic romance the Lord of the Rings has been called the most influential story of all time. These stories have sold over 150 million copies worldwide and have been translated into over forty languages, and they, along with works such as the Silmarillion and the History of Middle-Earth, have convinced scores of readers and critics that Tolkien is the master writer of fantasy. Whether you've been a fan for years or you've just recently been hooked by the blockbuster Lord of the Rings movies, "I Am in Fact a Hobbit" is an excellent starting point into the life and work of J.R.R. Tolkien. Book jacket."--Jacket.
