THE BOOK OF LOST TALES, I, stands at the beginning of the entire
conception of Middle-earth and Valinor. Here is the whole, glorious
history of Middle-earth that J.R.R. Tolkien brought to mythic and
dramatic life with his classic fantasy novels of the Ring Cycle.

"The Book of Lost Tales, Part 1" is the first of
two volumes containing the very first versions J.R.R. Tolkien wrote of
the legends that ultimately formed "The Silmarillion". He began writing
these stories during World War I, and his quest for perfection in their
form and presentation was so rigorous that he was unable to publish any
version of "The Silmarillion" before his death in 1973. His son
Christopher edited "The Silmarillion" for publication and followed it up
with thirteen more volumes of his father's writings on Middle-earth and
Valinor: "Unfinished Tales" and the mammoth twelve-volume series "The
History of Middle-earth," of which "The Book of Lost Tales" comprises
the first two volumes.
