Lady Redesdale was especially taken with the Führer and fascism and maintained her allegiance long after her husband publicly repudiated his.

Other topics occur within the series: efforts of Lane and others to obtain a pension for Thomas Hake, readers inquiring whether or not The Love of an Unknown Soldier is a work of fiction, acknowledgements from ships' crews and prison camp inmates for books supplied by the firm during World War One.
Some idea of the range and character of the correspondence included in Subseries A may be suggested by noting the presence of significant groups of letters from F. Barnard, John Buchan, Lord Alfred Douglas, Kenneth Grahame, Vernon Lee, J. Lewis May, the Baron Redesdale, Clement K. Shorter, and M. Willcocks.
In the absence of a good biography of John Lane it is difficult to place many of the letters--particularly early ones--written to him, but it is likely many of these correspondents were relatives or friends from his early years in London.
