Alice's Adventures in Wonderland
Illustrated by Harry Furniss
(Author) Lewis CarrollThe text for this edition makes some alterations to Lewis Carroll's final revised text in order to correct some inconsistencies which remained, or which appear to have been introduced, by Carroll in 1897. In the Evertype definitive text the aim has been to establish (or re-establish) clarity and consistency where it was lacking, while conserving the idiosyncrasies of Carroll's writing which have delighted readers for a century and a half. The illustrations in this volume were prepared in 1908 by Harry Furniss, who had previously illustrated Carroll's 'Silvie and Bruno'.
Lewis Carroll
Lewis Carroll, born Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, was an English writer, mathematician, and photographer best known for his children's novels "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" and "Through the Looking-Glass." His literary style is characterized by whimsical wordplay, clever puns, and nonsensical logic. Carroll's contributions to literature include popularizing the literary genre of literary nonsense and creating iconic characters such as the Cheshire Cat and the Mad Hatter. His work continues to inspire generations of readers and remains a timeless classic in the realm of children's literature.
