Alice’s Adventures Everywhere
     Alice’s Adventures Underground includes Dodgson’s sketches, and Alice’s Adventures
     in Wonderland includes Sir John Tenniel’s. Through the Looking Glass contains merely
     Dodgson’s wonderful text.

Sylvie & Bruno
     Sylvie & Bruno and Sylvie & Bruno Concluded were Dodgson’s attempt to go beyond
     Alice and create a work of lasting beauty. Sylvie has been mostly ignored, but I find it a
     strange and wonderful story. The religious commentary remains fresh to this day.

The Hunting of the Snark
     What I tell you three times is true.

Phantasmagoria
     One winter night, at half-past nine, cold, tired, and cross, and muddy, I had come home,
     too late to dine, and supper, with cigars and wine, was waiting in the study...

A Sea Dirge 
     I think we should put this poem on all the “Welcome to San Diego” signs.

Upon the Lonely Moor 
     It is always interesting to ascertain the sources from which our great poets obtained
     their ideas: this motive has dictated the publication of the following: painful as its
     appearance must be to the admirers of Wordsworth and his poem of “Resolution and
     Independence”.

Wise Words About Letter Writing  
     Writing letters is an art in itself. Carroll prefers it to be a science. Everything except for that
     really weird bit about the ‘Letter Register’ applies quite well to electronic mail. And if you
     want to see what Lewis Carroll wrote in his letters, go to Sara Leonor Bizarro’s Selected
     Letters of Lewis Carroll site.

Inventing Wonderland  
     A book investigating the culture and individuals that produced some of our best children’s
     literature: J.M. Barrie, Lewis Carroll, Edward Lear, Kenneth Grahame, and A.A. Milne.
     That’s Alice in Wonderland, Peter Pan, The Wind in the Willows, and Winnie the Pooh. I
     have not yet read this book, but if you’re looking for assistance in your paper, book report,
     or thesis, I suspect you’ll find this handy.
