This book is about the intimate and complex life of Dodgson. Cohen analyzes Dodgson's personality, ideas and work by means of previously unavailable family and personal documents, diaries and letters.
The book contains more than 100 of Carroll's black and white photographs and drawings and deals with a.o. Dodgson's attitude towards children, the Alice books, Dodgson's friendships with little girls, his professional triumphs, his social personality, and many more aspects of his life.
Under the pen name Lewis Carroll, Charles Lutwidge Dodgson became a legend for his children’s books, which broke the constraints of Victorian moralism. Thirty years in the writing and drawn from a voluminous fund of letters and diaries, this exemplary biography conveys both the imaginative fancy and human complexity of the creator of Alice in Wonderland.

Many autors have attempted to write stories in ‘Wonderland’ style, pretending them to be recently recovered ‘lost’ stories by Lewis Carroll. This book is different. It is Carroll’s original “Through the Looking Glass” tale, but in a ‘lost format’. The story is printed in a font based on Lewis Carroll’s handwriting, and it contains more than 30 pen-and-ink drawings, trying to mimic Carroll’s style. The result is a book that quite looks like a manuscript that Lewis Carroll could have written, if he had indeed created one for the “Looking Glass” story!

Ronald Reichertz analyses the Alice books in the context of children’s literature from the seventeenth through the nineteenth century, and argues that Carroll’s originality was the result of a fusion of his narrative imagination and formal and thematic features from earlier children’s literature.
