Boxed Sets & Books in Slipcases
By all accounts Tolkien was a very amenable and helpful fellow. Due to this there are quite a number of books that credit him for contributions of various kinds - proof reading, offering advice & criticism and general encouragement, etc.
This area is currently under construction, but it will include the books listed below plus whatever else turns up in the meantime.
