Get Tree and Leaf also. That gives you the excellent Leaf by Niggle, which is a lovely, if rather sad piece. But you get the infinitely wonderful essay Oh Fairy Stories, which is, as i said, infinitely wonderful (wonderful to no finite limit).
Plus in some additions you get the story The Homecoming of Beorhtnoth, in which you get a glimpse of JRRT's love of the ancient texts.
