    A new book titled "Quest for Middle-earth" argues that J.R.R. Tolkien's Lord of the Rings trilogy may have been based on real historical events and figures. The author cites discoveries of hobbit-like humans and giant eagles on Flores island, as well as Norse legends and Sumerian texts, as evidence that elves, giants, and dragons may have actually existed. He believes Tolkien had secret knowledge about early human history that informed his fantasy world of Middle-earth. The book explores why Tolkien learned Finnish and studied Norse folktales, and what the "ring" in his novels truly represented.

    Is the Lord of the Rings Real History?


    By Dirk Vander Ploeg
    Dated: Jun 05, 2007

    New book states that Norse legends, Sumerian texts and the discovery of hobbits and giant eagles on the
    island of Flores indicate that the Lord of the Rings may be more fact than fiction.
    Recent discoveries by archaeologists and historians have found evidence that indicates that elves, giants,
    dragons and even hobbits once existed on earth. Norse legends, Sumerian texts and the discovery of hobbits
    and giant eagles on the island of Flores indicate that the Lord of the Rings may be more fact than fiction.
    Dirk Vander Ploeg in his new book, Quest for Middle-earth, has discovered the secret of why Tolkien
    believed that royal blood (San Graal) must be preserved and why it was imperative that his characters
    Arwen and Aragorn marry. Learn about the knowledge he possessed decades before publication of the best
    sellers Holy Blood Holy Grail and The Da Vinci Code.
    Dirk has researched scientific, biblical and historical texts to discover if J.R.R. Tolkien had secret
    knowledge of earths early history and if he based the Lord of the Rings on this knowledge.
    Find out why Tolkien, an Oxford University professor of Anglo-Saxon and English language, learned to
    speak Finnish fluently and why he studied Norse folktales that were thousands of years old. As a devout
    Roman Catholic he believed in one God, so why did he imagine a setting and a cast of characters for his
    Middle-earth that had one main God and a pantheon of minor gods?
    For the first time ascertain the real meaning and importance of the RING! The Quest for Middle-earth
    answers these questions and more.
    If youre a fan of J.R.R. Tolkien, Dan Brown, Zecharia Sitchin or Erich von Daniken then youll love
    Quest for Middle-earth.
