Charles Dodgson, who wrote using the Pen name, LEWIS CARROLL, lived from 1832-1898. Educated at OXFORD, Dodgson was a mathematical lecturer at Oxford from 1855-1881. Carroll told these stories to the daughters of an Oxford Don and later decided to write them down. Alice is a little girl who dreams that she pursues a White Rabbit down a rabbit-hole, and there meets with strange adventures and odd characters, including the Duchess and the Cheshire Cat, the Lobster Quadrille, the Advice from a Caterpillar, the Mad Hatter, the Pig and Pepper, the March Hare, the King and Queen of Hearts, and the Mock Turtle. The Queen's stock response is "off with their heads" but the King pardons the offenders. 170 pages. I offer Combined shipping.
