CARROLL, Lewis SKU: 21285

London: Macmillan, 1972.

Reprint. Publisher's pea green illustrated cloth boards, by Tenniel. With 16 colour plates by Tenniel. An extremely bright and clean copy without old inscriptions or any other internal markings. As new. The sequel to Alice in Wonderland sees Alice passing through the looking-glass; Carroll (or rather Dodgson, to give him his birth name) explores concepts of mirror imagery, time running backwards, and chess strategies, all wrapped up in the exploits of a curious young lady who stands her own against the intractability of the Red Queen, Tweedledee and Tweedledum, and other bizarre characters from the Dodgson mind.
