The American Tolkien Society is dedicated exclusively to the study and fuller appreciation of the works of J.R.R. Tolkien and his son, Christopher J.R. Tolkien. Through our programs, we strive to bring into contact the followers and connoisseurs of these works.
We publish an online occasional journal, Minas Tirith Evening-Star, to provide a meeting ground for the exchange of ideas and joy generated by Tolkien's monumental works. Our journal includes the best in articles, poetry, fiction and a selection of reviews, games and features.
Membership in the Society is open to all. Annual membership dues are only $5.00 US for anyone, anywhere. Because our journal is now published online, we have no need to adjust dues rates to cover postage. Membership is not necessary to access this website and our journal; it is offered as a courtesy to those who wish the dignity of membership, and those who wish to help defray the costs of operating the website and the Society.
The Society was organized in 1975; our journal began publication independently in 1967. We do not accept payment by credit card, debit card, or Pay Pal, in order to keep costs down. Payment must be in U.S. funds, and we accept checks and money orders.
