Three senior OED editors have written a book about J. R. R. Tolkien's
involvement with the Oxford English Dictionary. Tolkien and the Ring of
Words describes Tolkien's work as a member of the OED's staff, and examines
how his lexicographical experiences influenced the way he revived,
remodelled, and invented English words.
