Alice in Wonderland (Collector's Edition) - With All the Original Illustrations

This is the original version of «Alice's Adventures in Wonderland» with Carroll's own original illustrations and John Tenniel's original illustrations. It was hand-written by Lewis Carroll for Alice Liddell between 1862 and 1864. The tale was first told by Carroll on 4 July 1862 to the three young daughters of Henry Liddell, Dean of Christ Church, Oxford, on a river boat trip. At Christmas 1886, the manuscript was published in a facsimile edition. This edition is certainly well worth reading, although it is shorter than the final form of the story-the later «Alice's Adventures in Wonderland» being about twice the length of the original «Alice's Adventures under Ground». Lewis Carroll (1832 – 1898), was an English author, mathematician, logician, Anglican deacon and photographer.
