The book: Scarce in this binding variant and attractive early American edition of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll beautifully illustrated by John Tenniel.

The author: Lewis Carroll, the pen name of Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, was a noted British writer, mathematician, logician, and photographer. His works, especially Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland (1865) and its sequel Through the Looking-Glass (1871), have become literary classics, celebrated for their playfulness, satire, and wit. Carroll's contribution to children's literature and English literary nonsense remains unparalleled.

The illustrator: Sir John Tenniel was a prominent English illustrator, best known for his work in Punch magazine and his illustrations for Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass. Tenniel’s imaginative and whimsical style perfectly matched the tone of Carroll’s stories, making his illustrations some of the most recognizable in children's literature.
