In 1862 Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, a shy Oxford mathematician with a stammer, created a story about a little girl tumbling down a rabbit hole. Thus began the immortal adventures of Alice, perhaps the most popular heroine in English literature. Countless scholars have tried to define the charm of the Alice books-with those wonderfully eccentric characters the Queen of Hearts, Tweedledum, and Tweedledee, the Cheshire Cat, Mock Turtle, the Mad Hatter et al.-by proclaiming that they really comprise a satire on language, a political allegory, a parody of Victorian children's...

While walking on a hillside, an unusual line occurred to Lewis Carroll: "For the Snark was a Boojum, you see."

Here in one book is Carroll's famed poem with its original illustrations by Henry Holliday, side by side with Martin Gardner's "Snarkteasers" - delightfully puzzling questions like these: - Can you rearrange the letters of OCEAN to spell something in which one can spend days in the...

Nicholas Williams translated this into Irish under the title "Eachtrai Eilise i dTir na nIontas" (Evertype 2007). Many of the characters and adventures in that book belong to a pack of cards.
