So glad you liked the Story Of Alice . There were no reference footnotes because it was all my own research as a local historian and Carroll admirer. Yes Christ Church is a wonderful place. My husband was Treasurer of Christ Church and his rooms looked over Alice's garden . In many ways the donnish creatures hadn't changed much since Carroll's days and I suppose you might say with Humpty Dumpty 'You've been listening at doors- and behind trees- and down chimneys - or otherwise you couldn't have known it' Mavis Batey.
