This highly pictorial book, featuring over 100 images, celebrates the stunning New Zealand scenery that played such a vital role in the multiple-award-winning film trilogy The Lord of the Rings. Presented in three sections, Snow, Fire and Ice; Forest, Hills and Water; and Sand, Surf and Sea, superb photography reveals the splendour of the Islands’ snow-capped peaks, golden beaches and lush forests throughout the seasons, making it easy to see why these fantastic locations were the perfect representation of J. R. R. Tolkein’s Middle Earth.
