Editorial Review:
Product Description: Lewis Carroll (Charles Lutwidge Dodgson) is famed for his magical stories, Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass, here illustrated throughout the inner pages by Sir John Tenniel's much loved drawings. However, inspired by the insatiable Victorian appetite for party games, tricks and conundrums, this eccentric and polymathical Englishman also wrote many other works of a humorous, witty, whimsical and nonsensical nature such as the mock-heroic nonsense verse The Hunting of the Snark, as well as dozens of other verses, stories, acrostics and puzzles, all of which are included in this volume. Oxford scholar, Church of England Deacon, University Lecturer in Mathematics and Logic, academic author of learned theses, gifted pioneer of portrait photography, colourful writer of imaginative genius and yet a shy and pedantic man, Lewis Carroll stands pre-eminent in the pantheon of inventive literary geniuses.

I love this book. I haven't read these stories in a long time and forgot how wonderful they are. The book is nicely put together and it very complete. Glad I bought it.

I bought this book from Colombia. It was shipped perfectly, and the book arrived in great condition. As a book it's everything you could ask for: great illustrations and the complete works. Nice presentation. And you get all of this for such a low price. Very good edition.
