Judging from the forwards to the various books, it seemed he'd pretty much covered everything he felt needed to be covered, and was repackaging things to a degree for readability (_The Fall of Gondolin_ was esp. noted as that).
Need to get a copy of _The Complete History of Middle Earth_ (and regret not buying the hardcovers when I saw them in a used bookstore, but was still reading my MMPBs) --- guess I'll end up with the boxed set.
Have bought most of the books which have come up for sale, and am currently reading the annotated Hobbit which offers some interesting insights.
