Fellowship and a Ring

Fascination with J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings led Wayne Hammond, assistant librarian of Williams College's Chapin Library of Rare Books, to collect works by and about Tolkien, then to write about him. It also led him to a soulmate across the Atlantic Ocean. His ensuing fellowship with Christina Scull led to a ring and to a husband-wife collaboration that has produced Tolkien publications since 1994.
