If you can get your hands on the Lord of the Rings that's a hardbound red book it will explain what all happened, as well as all the editing that went on when he tried to publish them. It was really interesting when I read it cuz I didn't know when I read the three separate books. Course, the red book is $75 and the little ones are what? $7? But if they have one open like at Borders or wherever you could look at it in there. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
