What Needed to be Proved. The Life of Lewis Carroll

Lewis Carroll, who gifted the world "Alice in Wonderland" and "Through the Looking-Glass," was not only a storyteller and poet but also a professor of mathematics at Oxford and one of the best English photographers of his time. This book about Carroll is written in the style of Carroll himself, a master of paradoxes and whimsical nonsense, meaning it combines informative content with play and imagination. The narrative is illustrated with Carroll's own photographs, drawings, and manuscripts.
