there are correct points, but he makes huge mistakes too: for example, in the illustrated ecyclopedia, he states that glorfindel was named after the glorfindel of the first age. (and we all know better, don't we) furthermore, he states that smaug was thge last dragon in te thirth and i am only remembering being said that smaug was the most powerful dragon in his days.
on other points David day gives but little information. the poece about Balrogs is but 6 lines long. there sure can be written much more about Balrogs.
