There are two different sets of dates in the appendices, the Kings' Reckoning, and the Shire Reckoning. You just have to convert between the two. S.R. 1 = T.A. 1601
And by "action LotR" I believe D meant the events that take place in the narrative as opposed to before and after the first and last chapter of the book, like when Aragorn was born, or Legolas and Gimli went over Sea, etc.
