When I read the book I was left with the feeling that this last battle was much greater than that of the Pelennor Fields- not so much in terms of size, but in the stakes they were risking, the darkness and the total feeling of despair. Remember lots of the army went back because they were too scared? This didn't bring out the despair well enough...it almost seemed no trouble to go and risk their lives for hobbits they were not even certain would make it- let alone how far through Mordor they would be.<BR>And it would appear that that speech <B>was</B> by Aragorn!!!
