  1. He was a Reverend and mathemetician in addition to author. Call him Reverend Charles Lutwidge Dodgson - he wrote and published the story under the under the pseudonym Lewis Carroll.  He was also a mathemetician at Christ Church.

    Alice was first published on 4 July 1865, exactly three years after the Reverend Charles Lutwidge Dodgson and the Reverend Robinson Duckworth rowed in a boat up the River Thames with three little girls:

    Lorina Charlotte Liddell (aged 13) ("Prima" in the book's prefatory verse)

    Alice Pleasance Liddell (aged 10) ("Secunda" in the prefatory verse)

    Edith Mary Liddell (aged 8) ("Tertia" in the prefatory verse)

    The journey had started at Folly Bridge near Oxford and ended five miles away in the village of Godstow. To while away time the Reverend Dodgson told the girls a story that, not so coincidentally, featured a bored little girl named Alice who goes looking for an adventure.

    The girls loved it, and Alice Liddell asked Dodgson to write it down for her. He eventually did.
