With six pages of important manuscript notes by Richard Adams, in which he pours out his thoughts about Tolkien's work and compares it to his own, in a free-flowing hand, with numerous additions and underlinings. He calls Gollum a 'marvellous conception... the awful, unacceptable outsider, who nevertheless is of huge value', and compares him to others who he sees as similar figures, such as Van Gogh, Shelley, Nelson, Emmeline Pankhurst and John Wesley. He goes on to say that Tolkien did not influence his own work, but changes his mind as he writes: 'I don't care for Magic and don't resort to it at all... I can't think of any respect in which Tolkien has influenced me. Afterthought. What about "The Girl in a Swing?" Supernatural. M.R. James?'. Adams expresses his disappointment that there are only two female characters in "Lord of the Rings" - Galadriel and Eowen - neither of whom, he says, exactly represent real Womanhood: '(I'm sure that Women's Lib. don't care for the overwhelmingly masculine tone of the conflict and the characterisation.) "Ask Germaine Greer?" (And "Watership Down" has been criticised for this. But the whole W.D. story hinges on the necessity of the female to a true society.)' Adams concludes that his feelings about "Lord of the Rings" echo Dr. Johnson's about "Paradise Lost": '"No man ever wished it longer"'. (3)

Stothard, 1810, half-title present, letterpress vigns., a.e.g., contemp. vellum, by Bartholomew Frye of Halifax, rubbed, and a trifle dusty, with vellum lifting sl. in places, spine divided by gilt roundel and star roll between rope rolls, second compartment gilt lettered on a blue ground, remainder with bird and urn tool in centre and drawer handle cornerpieces, sides with border of Greek-key roll between rope roll and single fillets, on a blue ground, inner foliate roll, each side with hand col. circular stipple eng. onlaid to centre, covered by transparent vellum, each with a different scene of classical figures, onlays within gilt radiating leaf border, 8vo. Gerhard Bartholomaus Frye was an immigrant from Osnabruck in Germany. He is thought to have worked for Edwards of Halifax, but it is known that he had established his own workshop at the Causeway in Halifax by 1816. The surviving books he bound at this address are printed between 1793 and 1811, and contemporary records show Frye to have been a Freemason in Halifax in 1809. From 1818 until 1821 he appears in the Manchester directories, and by 1825 he was in Liverpool. His speciality was using onlaid oval or circular engravings or paintings which were protected by transparent vellum, an idea he could have based on the bindings of Edwards without infringing the patent. cf. Maggs Bookbinding catalogue 1075, part 2, p.121 (Greek-key roll), and Maggs Bookbinding catalogue 1212, part 2, p.105 (radiating leaf roll around onlays). (1)
