A Gateway to Sindarin -- from the University of Utah Press, even! (I should search university press catalogs more often. This one came up on an imgGoogle* for "elvish", actually.)

I'm also kind of intrigued by their little logo - why some almost petroglyphic-looking guy with (it seems to me) a shield and perhaps a spear? Is this supposed to bear (dubious) relation to the Native tribes of the area, or something?

* - imgoogle? nah, that looks like it contains "IM" as in instant message.

Yup. I surmise he's supposed to be their mascot, the Ute.

See, I thought it might be something like that, but it looked a little, I dunno, un-PC. And "Utah University Utes"? That's creative. How about "Ohlone College (http://www.ohlone.cc.ca.us/) Ohlones" while we're at it! *eyeroll*
