Tolkien planned a Giant in LOTR? + speculations

[Tuor in Gondolin]

Thanks. Both posts quite informative. Perhaps
Tolkien's toying with the use of giants in LOTR
(and hints of them on Caradhras?) was a
reflection of his later dissatisfaction with some
elements of TH and wishes that more of it had
been revised (to account for the [after LOTR
came out] rather anomalous giants tossing
game in TH?).
