"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. The Kingdom of the Dwarfs presents a recently discovered archaeological find that 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).
