Repaired and rebound 1968 first paperback edition of the Lord of the Rings. This copy was bought by my father in 1968, and was the first read to me in the 1970s. Amazing work by @bookbindingetc

A few pictures from the island of Beru, one of the southern islands of Kiribati 🇰🇮 - the impacts of sea level rise killing of coconut trees is palpable. The ponds are used to grow algae, a traditional specialty of Beru (seen in the bucket). #billhastings #beruisland #kiribati🇰🇮 #kiribati #climatechange
