Tolkien conceived of The Lord of the Rings as a multiple volume with six sections he called «books» along with extensive appendices. The original publisher made the decision to split the work into three parts. It was also the publisher’s decision to place the fifth and sixth books and the appendices into one volume under the title The Return of the King, in reference to Aragorn’s assumption of the throne of Gondor. Tolkien indicated he would have preferred The War of the Ring as a title, as it gave away less of the story.[3]
Before the decision to publish The Lord of the Rings in three volumes was made, Tolkien had hoped to publish the novel in one volume, possibly also combined with The Silmarillion. However, he had proposed titles for the individual six sections. Of the two books that comprise what became The Fellowship of the Ring the first was to be called The First Journey or The Ring Sets Out. The name of the second was The Journey of the Nine Companions or The Ring Goes South. The titles The Ring Sets Out and The Ring Goes South were used in the Millennium edition.
