Did he ever! The Simarillion, for one. Others, started by JRR Tolkien, but finished by Christopher, are a many-volumed history.
Frodo lives!

Of direction there were matters unnoticed of the film. No one would need to see a film that used to be 8 hours long or extra! I have learn the books in many instances over and that i ought to say I used to be rather pleased with the movies. Jackson did a first-class job. The only factor I was upset about within the movie was once the casting. I was no longer completely happy with the Matrix man as Elrond and that i was now not comfortable with Liv Tyler as Arwen. Overall although, I thought the movies had been pleasant, couldnt were higher, but would have been rather a lot worse! And sure, the books are invariably higher. One other advice; you will have to waste less time getting indignant over trivial things like this and center of attention your power on ones that matter, like poverty, literacy, or world starvation or a million other matters that would use help and publicity.

Yes, he did...but not in the way you might think. The first war of the ring was not fully written, but pieces of it are found in many of his later writings, and in many of his son Christopher's. The Book of Lost Tales, The Silmarillion, and others give pieces of it...as well as the history of the first age, the coming of the Elves, etc.
If you like Tolkien, you may want to check some of the other book out.
Below are three good sites concerning Tolkien and his works.

Yes, both The Hobbit and the Silmarrillion. Of the two, only The Hobbit is readable by the average reader. The Silmarillion was primarily written to document the languages of the various peoples found in The Lord of the Rings. Tolkien was fascinated by language, especially early English variants, and this was why he originally started his mythos.

The Silmarrillion offers a history of Middle Earth.

You need to look up the works of both J. R. R. Tolkien and Christopher Tolkien to get a complete listing of everything on Middle Earth. After J.R.R.'s death, his son set about getting everything in reasonable order and getting it published. There were thousands of pages of details to work from.

Of course!!!!:
Pieces of it are found in many of his later writings, and in many of his son Christopher's writings. The Book of Lost Tales, The Silmarillion, and others have bits as well as the history of the first age, the coming of the Elves, etc.
