COMPLETE ILLUSTRATED LEWIS CARROLL

Inspired by the insatiable Victorian appetite for party games, tricks and conundrums, Lewis Carroll (Charles Lutwidge Dodgson) wrote many works of humorous, witty, whimsical and nonsensical verse. The Hunting of the Snark as well as dozens of other verses, stories, acrostics and puzzles are all included in this omnibus volume. Oxford scholar, Church of England Deacon, university lecturer, academic author, gifted pioneer of portrait photography and yet a shy and pedantic man, Lewis Carroll stands pre-eminent in the pantheon of inventive literary geniuses. With an introduction by Alexander Woollcott, this is a facsimile reprint by Wordsworth. 1232 pages with index of first lines. Paperback.
