This collection contains 16 poems by Tolkien, presented as verses from the Red Book of Westmarch, a fictional hobbit-written manuscript, whose contributors include Bilbo Baggins, Sam Gamgee, Frodo Baggins, and other distinguished hobbits. Tom Bombadil, about whom "The Adventures of Tom Bombadil" and "Bombadil Goes Boating" are written, is an enigmatic figure in hobbit history, referred to by Tolkien as "Master of wood, water, and hill." He makes appearances in both The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings. A notable poem in the collection is "Sea-Bell," also known as "Frodo's Dreme," which poet W. H. Auden praised in a letter to Tolkien as his "finest," to which Tolkien responded, "That really made me wag my tail.".

Tom Bombadil first surfaced in a 1934 poem Tolkien published in the Oxford magazine, and in 1937 Tolkien suggested that this character could be the hero of a sequel to The Hobbit. This didn't come to fruition, but in the 1960s Tolkien's aunt Jane Neave suggested he should produce a gift book about Tom Bombadil that people could buy at Christmas presents. Tolkien and his publisher collected poems about Tom, and other poems from Middle-earth into the present volume.
