The Complete Alice: Alice''s Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass and What Alice Found There

English

By (author): Lewis Carroll

Illustrated by: John Tenniel

'I read it once a year, without fail . . . it continues to be my unofficial guide to the English class system, the British imagination, and our particular sense of humour.' Richard E. Grant

The Complete Alice is the ultimate edition of Lewis Carrolls beloved classic. This beautiful edition iIncludes both Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass and What Alice Found There, as well as the lost chapter The Wasp in the Wig. Lewis Carroll's Alice has been enchanting children for over 160 years. Curious Alice, the White Rabbit, the formidable Queen of Hearts, the Hatter, Tweedledum and Tweedledee, and the Red and White Queens are among the best loved, most iconic literary creations of all time. Macmillan was the original publisher of both Alice books, in 1865 and 1871, and is proud to remain true to the vision of its creators.

This beautiful new edition, published for the 160th anniversary of Alices Adventures in Wonderland in 2025, also includes a brand new introduction from Richard E. Grant, a foreword by Philip Pullman, and is packed full of amazing, exclusive extra content. A lively and authoritative non-fiction section draws on Macmillan's rich historical archive to tell the real-life story of how the Alice stories were written and published, making this the perfect gift for all fans of Alice, young and old.

The Complete Alice also has a glorious freshly-designed cover with intricate embossed and foiled details, head and tail bands, foiled edges and a ribbon marker. The dreamlike illustrations, colour versions of Sir John Tenniel's originals, were produced in 1911 by celebrated artist Harry Theaker, under the direction of Tenniel himself, and the series completed by contemporary watercolourist Diz Wallis, making this a gift edition to treasure forever.

'. . . The Alice books have lasted [so] long because they are full of delight . . . Nothing can last that long if it doesnt cause delight.' Philip Pullman
