The twelfth and final volume of The History of Middle-earth. Christopher Tolkien traces the writing of the prologue and appendices to The Lord of the Rings - the family trees, calendars and histories of the Third Age - and gathers late essays and fragments, among them The New Shadow, an abandoned sequel set in Gondor long after the War of the Ring.
