Fonds consists of Lovat Dickson's personal papers as well as the papers of Una Troubridge and Radclyffe Hall, which Dickson inherited from Una Troubridge, and some of the papers of Richard Hillary, which Dickson acquired as Hillary's literary executor. The fonds also includes research material gathered by Dickson relating to Grey Owl, H.G. Wells, Charles Morgan, the Massey Family and the Royal Ontario Museum. Also included are files relating to the Macmillan publishing company. The textual records have been arranged in the following series: Radclyffe Hall and Una Troubridge - Papers and research material; Radclyffe Hall and Una Troubridge - additional material; Richard Hillary - papers and research material; Charles Morgan; Lovat Dickson - miscellaneous manuscripts; Lovat Dickson - publications; Grey Owl (2 series); Macmillan and Company Ltd.; Memoirs (2 series); H.G. Wells (2 series); Massey Family; Royal Ontario Museum - Museum Makers; and Correspondence (2 series), 1844-1986.

Also included in the fonds are photographs of Grey Owl (Archibald Belaney); photos of Dickson's youth in Alberta; publishing associates and other writers; photographs of or relating to Evelyn Gordon; photos of Richard H. Hillary and his family and friends; photos of Romaine Brooks, Radcliffe Hall, and Una Troubridge, 1900-[ca. 1980].

The fonds also contains a caricature of an unidentified person. This caricature was found among the correspondence relating to Dickson's biography of H.G. Wells; a letter suggests the drawing was done by H.G. Wells, n.d.

Dickson, Lovat, 1902- : Born in Australia and educated in England, Horatio (Rache) Henry Lovat Dickson immigrated to Canada at the age of 15, settling in Ottawa with his family. He worked briefly for the Famous Players Canadian Corporation in Toronto, before establishing and publishing The Brule District Weekly in Brule, Alta. In 1929, he graduated with an M.A. in English from the University of Alberta, shortly after which he returned to England to become associate editor of the Fortnightly Review.

Lovat Dickson founded the publishing house, Lovat Dickson Ltd., in London in 1932, and in 1933 published Lovat Dickson's Magazine. In 1938, he joined the Macmillan publishing company where he was director from 1941 to 1964. Upon returning to Canada in 1967, he established Lovat Dickson Ltd. in Toronto.

Lovat Dickson was the author of two biographies of the Canadian author and naturalist Grey Owl (Archibald Belaney 1888-1938), Half-breed: the Story of Grey Owl (1939) and Wilderness Man: The Strange Story of Grey Owl (1973). Dickson was also the author of a biography of the English poet and author Radclyffe Hall (1880-1943), Radclyffe Hall at the Well of Loneliness: a Sapphic Chronicle (1975), which he based in part upon papers he was bequeathed by Radclyffe Hall's companion Una Troubridge (d. 1963).

Dickson also wrote a biography, Richard Hillary (1950), of the English poet and airman Richard Hillary (1919-1943), who was killed in action in the Second World War, for which Dickson collected some of Hillary's papers. Dickson was also the author of a biography of the English novelist H.G. Wells (1866-1946), H.G. Wells: His Turbulent Life and Times (1969), and a history of the Royal Ontario Museum, Museum Makers (1986). Lovat Dickson published two volumes of memoirs during his lifetime, The Ante-Room (1959) and The House of Words (1963), and was working a third volume when he died in 1986.
