Whether Lewis did a good job or not of putting together his Tale of Gondolin is, I'm afraid, now by the by as he has blotted his copybook somewhat and the Estate ever authorising his work is as likely as little green men being found on the Moon now. There was a recent brou-ha-ha surrounding some reviews misleadingly submitted to Tolkien Society journals under pseudonyms involving Mr Lewis and his wife. There's no harm in me saying that as it's common knowledge amongst Society members. Also be careful where you buy from as a dealer is closely involved in selling their works and collectible Tolkien books for what in my experience are very high prices - which is not in itself wrong, but you can get these books for much less than the quoted prices.
