New Hobbit book published and Lord of the Rings fans will love it

Description

The first-ever Gaelic translation of The Hobbit has been released by Moray Watson, Professor of Gaelic and Translation at the University of Aberdeen and a lifelong Tolkien enthusiast.

The university lecturer started working on 'A' Hobat' several years ago, and now, after numerous rounds of editing, the book is ready for purchase - complete with an afterword explaining why Professor Watson chose the word hobat to translate 'hobbit' and why it has a' instead of the more 'expected' an.
