ATG Book of the Week of May 30, 2011

The Alice Behind Wonderland by Simon Winchester. New York: Oxford University Press, 2011. 110 pages 9780195396195

This is a quick and entertaining read by the gentleman who wrote The Professor and the Madman (about the OED) among other good books. This one’s about Lewis Carroll (Charles Dodgson)’s fascination with photography, Alice, the Liddell family, and Oxford.
