Note
This is the
story of how a Baggins had an adventure, and found himself doing and staying
things altogether unexpected…
Bilbo Baggins
is a hobbit who enjoys a comfortable, unambitious life, rarely travelling
further than the pantry of his hobbit-hole in Bag End. But his contentment is
disturbed when the wizard, Gandalf, and a company of thirteen dwarves arrive on
his doorstep one day to whisk him away on an unexpected journey 'there and back
again'. They have a plot to raid the treasure hoard of Smaug the Magnificent, a
large and very dangerous dragon...
The prelude to
The Lord of the Rings, The Hobbit has sold many millions of copies since its
publication in 1937, establishing itself as one of the most beloved and
influential books of the twentieth century.
