Description: A few black and white illustrations. ''Jenny Woolf brings to life a fascinating, but sometimes exasperating human being. She uses rarely seen and recently discovered sources like Carroll's private bank account records, letters from the family of the 'real' Alice Liddell, and unpublished correspondence with Carroll's own relatives. Woolf sets this perennially intriguing man firmly in the context of the English Victorian Age and tackles some of the questions about Carroll that have persisted over the years.''
