The Lord of the Rings

subdividing entries by aspect.
    Primary entry elements have been chosen usually according to predominance in
The Lord of the Rings
, but sometimes based on familiarity or ease of reference: thus (for instance) predominant
Nazgûl
rather than
Ringwraiths
or even less frequent
Black Riders
, and predominant and familiar Treebeard rather than
Fangorn
, with cross-references from (as they seem to us) the most important alternate terms. Names of bays, bridges, fords, gates, towers, vales, etc. including ‘Bay’, ‘Bridge’, etc. are entered usually under the principal element, e.g.
Belfalas, Bay of
rather than
Bay of Belfalas
. Names of battles and mountains are entered directly, e.g.
Battle of Bywater, Mount Doom
. With one exception (Rose Cotton), married female hobbits are indexed under the husband’s surname, with selective cross-references from maiden names.
