Word play and riddles in Lewis Carroll's Wonderland were a side effect from his real job: math teacher. In this lecture, Stuart Moskowitz looks at classic puzzles ofthe 1800s, and shows us complex notes and illustrations from Carroll's notebooks. This lecture was part of the Spring 2017 Meeting of the Lewis Carroll Society of North America and the closing event for SFPL's "The Illustrated Alice: The Imagining of Wonderland" exhibit: http://sfpl.org/index.php?pg=1026427901
