Lewis Carroll 
Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland AND Through the Looking-Glass And What Alice Found There – Unabridged [EPUB ebook] 

Lewis Carroll was born Charles Lutwidge Dodgson on January 27, 1832, the third child of Charles and Frances Jane Dodgson. An early lover of literature, Dodgson suffered from a stammer that greatly inhibited his social activities throughout his life.
Despite his status as an outcast at school, Charles excelled scholastically, particularly in math. He attended Oxford where he received first-class honors in Mathematics and won the Christ Church Mathematical Lectureship upon graduation in 1855, which he held for 26 years.
But Dodgson was also a poet and writer, contributing often to the family magazine Mischmasch, among others. He wrote mostly short, humorous pieces and satire, but with a romantic poem, ‘Solitude, ‘ written under his pen name ‘Lewis Carroll, ‘ he finally received real recognition.
Befriending the new Dean of Christ Church, Henry Liddell, Dodgson grew to know the Liddell children, including the youngest, Alice. For her, he created the fantastical tale of Alice and her adventures ‘under ground, ‘ which was later refined and published as ‘Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland.’
After the overwhelming success of the first Alice book, Dodgson published his sequel, ‘Through the Looking-Glass and What Alice Found There, ‘ which proved to be just as popular. Of his other literary works, his most beloved is the nonsense poem ‘The Hunting of the Snark.’
An inventor, amateur photographer and prolific correspondent, Dodgson died of pneumonia after a bout of influenza on January 14, 1898 and is buried at the Mount Cemetery in Guildford.
