The fifteenth volume is For the Love of the King; Methuen claimed it was a newly discovered play by Wilde, and published it in the same format as the first collected edition in 1922. The authorship of the work was widely contested, and resulted in a legal dispute between the publishers and Wilde's bibliographer, Stuart Mason (Christopher Sclater Millard).
