gondowe has just left Hobbiton.
This is a fixed (from December 2011 and actually) structure of my “Copy from Findegil of Gondor of the Thain’s Book” in order of serving of future guide or reference.

First of all there is a small volume containing Prologues, Prefaces and Notes from Tolkien extracted from TLOTR as well as my own notes and prologues. So:

Volume 0 Introduction to the Texts of the Histories of Arda (Prologues, notes and guides of names)

Note preliminary to this edition (from me)
Preface of the author to his First Edition of TFotLotR
Preface of the author (Tolkien) to his Second Edition of The Fall of the Lord of the Rings
Prologue of the Editor (me) to the Three volumes of TFtE
Note of the author on pronunciation
Note of the author on Writing and spelling
Note of the author on the Shire Records
Note of the editor (me) based on texts of the translator (Tolkien) on the origin and source of the texts of the TftE
Note of the author on translation to modern language
Nomenclature of TLotR
General Guide of Names
