Correction on "The Hobbit"

Hey, just wanted to let you know that "The Hobbit" was published in September, 1938, and not 1932.

Just a friendly correction. (-:

Thanks.

David

I've had this pointed out before but I was too lazy to change it. Now the correct date is shown. Thanks

Re: Correction on "The Hobbit"

Sorry, my mistake. It was actually published in 1937, and not 1938. The first American edition was published in 1938.

Sorry about that. I found out after I looked over my original post and saw that I said '38 instead of '37. I doubt it really matters, though.

Re: Correction on "The Hobbit"

Thanks again. I really don't know why I thought it was '32. I wrote a little biography of Tolkien for my website when I was 11, without checking any sources and I guess I thought it was 1932 for whatever reason. When I made the board I just took the date from my old bio without confirming it. <img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/embarassed.gif ALT="">
