Unfinished Tales: The Lost Lore of Middle-earth by J.R.R. Tolkien
In these Tales are found the earliest accounts and original ideas of Gods and Elves, Dwarves, Balrogs, and Orcs; of the Silmarils and the Two Trees of Valinor; of Nargothrond and Gondolin; of the geography and cosmology of Middle-earth.
The Book of Lost Tales was the first major work of imagination by J.R.R. Tolkien, begun in 1916-17 when he was twenty-five years old and left incomplete several years later.

 Articles - The Book of Lost Tales
The Book of Lost Tales is the title of the first two volumes of Christopher Tolkien& 12-volume series The History of Middle-earth in which he analyses the unpublished manuscripts of his father J.
For publication the book was split into two volumes: The Book of Lost Tales 1 and The Book of Lost Tales 2, but this is simply an editorial division.
In the earlier versions of the "Lost Tales" this man is named Eriol, of some vague north European origin, but in later versions he becomes Ælfwine, an Englishman of the Middle-ages.

The Silmarillion (which is to some extent a compression of both Books of Lost Tales) these tales read more like stories and less like annals.
Begun in 1916-17 while Tolkien was in hospital after serving in the Battle of the Somme, The Book of Lost Tales is the earliest version of The Silmarillion -- the storyline is much the same but the style is very different indeed (extremely archaic).

 J.R.R. Tolkien (Christopher Tolkien, editor) The History of Middle-earth
The book concludes with a Commentary on "The Lay of Leithian" by C.S. Lewis.
In The Book of Lost Tales, however, Tuor, the hero of “The Fall of Gondolin” and father of Eärendel, is described as a master of lore and music, but we have to take this on faith, because he is too busy hewing and hacking to demonstrate any other abilities.
The Book of Lost Tales presents the earliest form of Tolkien's mythology in a linguistic form I think of as "Ye Olde Speake." You know — peppering sentences with archaic words and inverting the order of nouns and verbs to give an artificial sense of age and grandeur (or is it grandiosity?).

In the Book of Lost Tales version of "The Fall of Gondolin," five Balrogs were slain by Tuor with his axe (this number would not be possible in the later version of the mythos).
ramborleg is the name of Tuor's axe, as it is given in Unfinished Tales and the Book of Lost Tales.

Another book that hasn't been mentioned is "Unfinished Tales" which I highly recommend.
The book, though entitled as it must be The Silmarillion, contains not only the Quenta Silmarillion, or Silmarillion proper, but also four other short works.
I personally didn't care for the Book of Lost Tales but that's just my preference.

 So You Want to Learn Elvish?...
The names from the first phase are derived from a language Tolkien called "Qenya" and another he called "Goldogrin" (the language of the Gnomes, the race of Elves in The Book of Lost Tales whose role was given to the Noldor in The Silmarillion).
Foster has not revised his book since before Unfinished Tales was published, and many of his translations are regarded as questionable or even just wrong.
Of course, there are various Elven words and phrases throughout the book for some of which translations are provided (although not necessarily literal translations).

This passage explains why Eru conceived the Themes and the reason why Melkor’s discord was allowed to join with them, which was that in this way the music would be complete and would reflect the full glory of the vision of Ilúvatar.
