ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
Thanks go first of all to Chris Smith at HarperCollins and to the Tolkien Trust for initiating this project and inviting me to work on it. I am especially grateful to Chris for his patience and help in overseeing and shaping the volume. My thanks to the Tolkien Trust for granting me permission to reproduce various pages from the author’s manuscripts and typescript held in their archive. Particular thanks go to Christopher Tolkien for his contribution and his advice and counsel, and to Baillie Tolkien for her extended help in communication and liaison. All three of them made my work with The Lay of Aotrou and Itroun a pleasure. Thank you, one and all.
