I've read the book in proof. This is an important book that no student of Tolkien or of his family will want to miss.

I think 9. and 11. are worth it alone for me. Looks like a very worthwhile book from the ToC.

I've just pre-ordered mine at the Blackwell's. Didn't take a lot of convincing after your comments on the contents 41€ with delivery, it's the cheapest I found.
