I suspect many of us take Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland and Lewis Carroll for granted, assume we know all about the book and its eccentric author from what we read when young and subsequently have picked up over the years. This beautiful and wonderfully produced book is the corrective – for most of us, everything we could possibly want to know about the author and his work will be found here – and more. Charles Dodgson – Lewis Carroll’s real name – was a thoroughly interesting man, mathematician, scholar, an odd Victorian whose fascination (obsession?) with the young Alice Liddell prompted him to invent a strange and compelling world that has fascinated so many of us. And that, of course, included Martin Gardner, himself a brilliant thinker, writer, and mathematician whose own oeuvre is incredibly rich and diverse.

Good to know! Thanks!

I stumbled across this in my research, and in the future, I definitely would love to read this copy of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass. I feel like there's so much more I could get out of the text in understanding the historical and literary context.

My mistake was fixed! Thanks for pointing it out!And there you go anon, another recommendation for Annotated Alice!
