Description:
Robert Foster is an assistant professor of English at Rutgers College. Born in Brooklyn, he first encountered The Lord of the Rings during a summer in his early teens. Several years later, he began tracing the etymology of names used in Tolkien's work, a labor of love that resulted in this book, a Ph.D. in English and medieval studies from the University of Pennsylvania, and a scholarly career. Mr. Foster lives in Parsippany, New Jersey.
