Yes, it was Sauron. I love titles, they can be so interesting and tricky. It actually could be the one ring, but based on facts from the book, Tolkien intended it to be Sauron. If he wanted to make it clearer, he could have said, The Lord of the Ring, leaving out the 's'. If you like interesting titles, how about this one, The Most Dangerous Game. That could be taken two different ways. The first is that the 'game' is the sport of hunting in the book, the second being the 'game' is what's being hunted. If you read it, you'll know what I mean. You can't tell which, maybe it means both, just like LotR. Who knows, maybe it has a double meaning.
