Good but not complete
By A Customer on December 6, 2002
Format: Paperback
On the plus side, this book contains loads of stuff by Lewis Carroll as well as the two Alice books. Not much is of the same quality, but quite a lot is well worth having. However, be aware that the title is misleading. Quite a lot that Lewis Carroll wrote is not here, as can be seen by doing a search for books by "Carroll, Lewis" and comparing that with the contents. It includes some material that appeared under his real name or pseudonyms other than Lewis Carroll, but few will grumble at that. Although all the wonderful illustrations by Tenniel for the Alice books are here (albeit not always clearly reproduced), no other illustrations are included. For some works, such as The Hunting of the Snark, the illustrations commissioned by Carroll are excellent and their omission is a serious drawback. However, for all lovers of the Alice books who want to read more by the author, this is a fair and inexpensive starting point.

what it contains
By David A. Olson on January 16, 2009
Format: Hardcover
This has the two Alice books in it, Tha weird poem abotu the vorpal sword (can't recall the name right now), two other books in it, and a wide variety of poems and essays by Carroll. The book is illustrated, though all of the illustrations are black and white. I got it new for less than 20 bucks, which is a good price. Something to consider when you look at how much they are selling it for here.

Fantastic B & N Creation!
By H. Barbosa on July 14, 2009
Format: Hardcover
Barnes and Noble published the 1st edition in 1994 in hardcover with a dust jacket. They now offer this deluxe faux leather edition and I am impressed with the results! Find it at all B & N stores and their online site. You will find it at most $19.98 or less if you happen to be a member! I got mine for 13.75 using one of their coupons. Buy from one of the vendors on this site if there is no other alternative for you. The book includes John Tenniel's iconic B & W drawings. This collection will bring countless hours of reading pleasure.

Do you really need 'complete'
By B. Marold HALL OF FAMETOP 500 REVIEWER on November 6, 2005
Format: Paperback
'The Complete, Fully Illustrated Works, Deluxe Edition' of lewis Carroll's works may actually be more than you really want. While three of Carroll's works, the two Alice fantasy novels and the long poem, 'The Hunting of the Snark' are major classics of English literature, Carroll wrote an equal or greater amount of pretty dull stuff, primarily the two 'Sylvia and Bruno' novels, which I have never been able to finish.

My suggestion to all but the Carroll scholar and people who want to see his logical works is to buy the annotated versions of the two Alice novels and the annotated 'Snark', all annotated by Martin Gardiner. This way, you are also guaranteed of getting Henry Holiday's illustrations for 'The Hunting of the Snark', which are not in all 'Complete' collections.

It is time to clarify.
By Christopher Featherson on March 10, 2014
Format: Hardcover Verified Purchase
We all adore the peculiar and intellectual man named, 'Lewis Carroll'. And within this Barnes and Noble classic series, anyone is able to obtain his 'complete works'; however, there as been conflict from customers claiming that this is not the complete works of Lewis Carroll--that statement is purely false.

The writer Lewis Carroll, before the pseudonym, conveyed the real name: Charles Lutwidge Dodgson. He was a scholar at the Oxford academy, majoring in mathematics. Possessing solely knowledge of the books, Dodgson was indeed limited due towards education. It was then, when he had developed a friendship between the daugther of the head master, Alice Liddell--since Dodgson had autism and could not socialize with adults easily--that he was able to become that "mad" writer people consider him. And so, on a Christmas day--after promising Alice to writer her a storybook, Dodgson--nay, Carroll, wrote Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and bestowed it to Alice as a gift (which explains why there is a Christmas poem as a prologue.

There has been a controversy that this is not the complete works of 'Lewis Carroll'; that is incorrect. For, we must consider that 'Lewis Carroll' and 'Charles Lutwidge Dodgson' as two different entities sharing the same body and perhaps mind. It is quite simple--and logical, that Lewis Carroll be a side of this 'entity' to publish beloved works as 'Charles Lutwidge Dodgson' be another mathematician instead.

And what of the works that are not included within this book? As remarked before, those are Dodgson's--not Carroll's. Besides, if this were titled 'The Complete Works of Charles Lutwidge Dodgson', this would convey a few works--but also his scribbles and mistakes that all children do when endeavoring to learn the English language.

So do not remark another complaint, and consider: who is Lewis Carroll and who is Charles Lutwidge Dodgson?

He was a perfect writer
By clarie on March 29, 2013
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
Louis Carroll (1832-1898), so popular in the 19th century, is still one of the best writers we have today. I use his work for inspiration all the time. what most people are unaware of is his uncle was a Commisioner of Asylums and was murdered by a "lunitic" who jabbed a shaperend nail in his uncle's head and killed him. the poem "The Hunting of the Snark" was a nonsensical version of that murder. so we don't know how many wounds he hid in his prose. one of the best writers of all times & one of the best photographers. see "Dreaming In Pictures".
