A lavishly illustrated journey into the world of legends' most elusive people in the tradition of J.R.R. Tolkien's Lord of the Rings. An extraordinary exploration of a remarkable civilization that will enchant and enthrall all who delve into its pages.

Now in a stunning new edition for a new generation, The Kingdom of the Dwarfs presents the archaeological find of the 20th century, which provides a wealth of knowledge on the here-to-fore unknown life and habits of Dwarfs in all their day-to-day activities. Close examination is provided of their lives in everything from metalworking technologies to constructing underground dwellings and tunnels. Additionally, insight is offered into the general hierarchy of the population, from lowly laborers to their kings and ruling class.

Meticulously researched and compiled by writers Robb Walsh and David Wenzel, and painstakingly illustrated by Wenzel (artist on The Hobbit and The Wizard's Tale graphic novels), this new edition has been remastered with improved art and updated entries on Dwarfen life and culture as well as twenty additional pages of newly discovered lore.
