The Story of Lewis Carroll is a biographical account of the life of Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, better known by his pen name Lewis Carroll, written by Isa Bowman and first published in 1899. The book chronicles the life of the beloved children's author, from his childhood in Cheshire, England, to his time at Oxford University, where he developed a love for mathematics and logic, and his eventual career as a writer. Bowman provides detailed accounts of Carroll's family life, including his relationship with his siblings and parents, and his close friendships with several young girls, including Alice Liddell, who inspired his most famous work, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. The book also explores Carroll's love of photography and his interest in the emerging field of psychology, as well as his struggles with stammering and his eventual retirement from writing. Overall, The Story of Lewis Carroll offers a comprehensive and engaging look at the life of one of the most beloved and influential writers of the 19th century. Bowman's writing style is lively and accessible, making this book a must-read for fans of Carroll's work and anyone interested in the history of children's literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
