Description

A second-edition copy of Lewis Carroll's The Vision of the Three T's, A Threnody by the Author of "The New Belfry."

  • Lewis Carroll (Charles Lutwidge Dodgson) (English).
  • Oxford: James Parker & Co., 1873.
  • Ownership signature of Gibbs Rigaud to top edge. 
  • Original printed brick red wrappers.


Major-General Gibbs Rigaud served in the Kaffir War and in China. Dodgson from time to time applied to John Rigaud, Gibbs' brother, who was a Fellow at Magdalen College, for permission to take visitors to Magdalen Chapel. Gibbs on one occasion called on Dodgson with a niece to look at photographs. There is also one letter, dated 1875, to John inquiring about his brother, hearing he had some "beautiful Indian (or Japanese?) shawls or other articles of dress" that he would like to borrow.
