Roots and Branches: Selected Papers on Tolkien is the eleventh book of Walking Tree's Cormarë Series. Unlike most other volumes, it is not a collection of essays, but all work by Tom Shippey.

From the publisher[edit | edit source]

Professor Tom Shippey is best known for his books The Road to Middle-earth and J.R.R. Tolkien: Author of the Century. Yet they are not the only contributions of his to Tolkien studies. Over the years, he has written and lectured widely on Tolkien-related topics. Unfortunately, many of his essays, though still topical, are no longer available. The current volume unites for the first time a selection of his older essays together with some new, as yet unpublished articles.
