On the 4th of July 1862, Charles Lutwidge Dodgson told the story of "Alices' Adventures Underground" to Alice Liddell and her two sisters on a boating trip down the river Isis which runs through the town of Oxford. He based the central character on Alice herself, and wove into the story many of the places and things which they'd seen on their outings in Oxford.
Alice asked him to write it down, and the story became "Alices' Adventures Underground", then "Alices' Adventures in Wonderland". The title is often shortened to "Alice In Wonderland". As with the follow-up, "Through the Looking Glass", Charles Dodgson adopted the pen-name "Lewis Carroll".

his website is dedicated to the whimsical creations of LEWIS CARROLL,
emanating from the 'ALICE' books and appearing in film, video and theatrical
productions, and on sound recordings, radio and television. There are
also sections dealing with artwork, book covers, illustrations and even
advertising material. We offer perhaps the only complete listing and review
anywhere of every known film based on the Alice stories.
What this site isn't
about though, is Charles Dodgson himself
or his other works - that's a much, much broader list of
subjects, better studied elsewhere. So,
you'll find references to him within these pages,
but only in relation to the 'Alice' character.
