Thank You.

Dont know of any online maps but the book The Atlas Of Middle Earth by Karen Wynn Fonstad really helped me when i was reading the books. Hope this helps, sorry if it doesnt.

This is the best on-line map site that I've come across.

I've also read the Atlas of Middle Earth -it is an excellent resource of explanation. But if you want online maps Bill Ferny's link will point you to the right direction.

I really like this map. It mergers the sil and the LOTR maps. It gives great insight into the union of the first age and later ages. Not a lot of detail, but it gets the big picture...

It also has a few errors, but then again, so did Cristopher Tolkien's first ME map!

Ooooops, here is the map link:
