Lewis Carroll was the pen name of Charles Lutwidge Dodgson. He was a church deacon, mathematician and an author of mathematics books.
Dodgson had a bad stammer which he suffered with all of his life. This limited his speaking engagements. However, in spite of his stammer, Dodgson spoke easily with children.
During a hot summers day on July 4TH, 1862, Dodgson began to tell a long story to Alice Liddell (died in 1934) who was the daughter of George Liddell, the head of Oxford College. This is when Alice's Adventures in Wonderland was born and it still continues to this day.
"Every thing's got a moral, if only you can find it"
Lewis Carroll quote
