Plot

The quest began when the authors discovered a strange link between Lewis Carroll and their forebear, Prime Minister Gladstone. It led them to re-examine Carroll's diaries and search out his little-known photographic portraits of the celebrities he recorded meeting - such as Huxley, Faraday, Tennyson and Ruskin. By visiting the places that Carroll frequented, they unravelled a code whereby the Oxford mathematician laced his Alice stories with clues to his scurrilous views on the great and the good of Victorian England.
