Information
has glosseng: The Denham Tracts is a publication of a series of pamphlets and jottings on folklore, 54 in all, collected by Michael Denham, a Yorkshire tradesman, between 1846 and 1859. Most of the original tracts were published with 50 copies (though some of them with 25 or even 13 copies). The tracts were later re-edited by James Hardy for the Folklore Society and imprinted in two volumes in 1892 and 1895. It is possible that J.R.R. Tolkien took the word "hobbit" from the list of fairies in the Denham Tracts .
