Lewis Carroll, the pen name of Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, was born in this date in 1832.
He is best known for his books (often combined) Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass. Considered nonsense, nonetheless, these books are classics, and have contributed quite a bit to our culture.
Both of these are available from Project Gutenberg. Alice's, in English, is here. The splendid Tenniel illustrations are included in the German edition, here. Looking-Glass is here. Other Carroll works are also available from Project Gutenberg.
Thanks for reading.
Musings on science, the Bible, and fantastic literature (and sometimes basketball and other stuff).
God speaks to us through the Bible and the findings of science, and we should listen to both types of revelation.
The title is from Psalm 84:11.
The Wikipedia is usually a pretty good reference. I mostly use the World English Bible (WEB), because it is public domain. I am grateful.
