Once you've finished LOTR, you can give The Silmarilion a go. It's sort of like the Bible of Middle Earth, all the creation stories. It can be, uh, kinda dry though.
There is an excellent Atlas of Middle Earth that should help with the map thingy.
As far as I know, all the editions are pretty much the same. I like the one volume paperback edition with appendices, I don't know if there is a US one, we have a bunch of UK ones.
