Lang, Cosmo Gordon (1864-1945)

The 321 volumes in this collection cover the whole of his life, although the bulk of the material comprises his official correspondence at Canterbury (Vols. 1-186). There is a subject series of 94 volumes (Vols. 1-94) covering the years 1920-42 (some York papers are included) and a chronological series of 92 volumes (Vols. 95-186) for the period 1928-42. The remaining 136 volumes include family correspondence, sermons, appointment diaries, notebooks, journals, photograph albums, and press cuttings, many of which were deposited in the Library after his death by his literary executor Alan Don, Dean of Westminster.
