(MILWAUKEE) - Some of Marquette University’s collection of manuscripts and drawings from J.R.R. Tolkien are back on European soil. They're part of an exhibit in Paris featuring the works of the English fantasy author and scholar known for a number of literary masterpieces including The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings.
On CBS 58 Sunday Morning, Michael Schlesinger visited the Raynor Memorial Library on Marquette University’s campus to see what this new showing means for Marquette and Tolkien fans everywhere.
