Yeah, I mentioned it to the kid (now adult) because he was reading Heinlen and he'd never heard of Tolkien. So I had it sent to him.

Looks like I did not know about Amazon until then. I know that I didn’t want to go to a book store and then take it to him, so I probably searched on line and found Amazon. Very soon after that, I began ordering all my books there; previously I had gone to a physical store.
