Who's the real Alice? 

Alice is the inspiration for the famous story 'Alice in Wonderland', Alice was born in 1852. As a child, Alice was in touch with Carol and was one of the models of his photographs. Alice, around 1862, when she was walking with her sisters, asked Carol to tell them a story, and told them the adventures of Alice herself, who fell into a rabbit's hideout and then made the well-known trip. The little girl loved it so much that she asked Carol to write it and agreed, it was said that at one point the writer asked Alice hand to marry her father, who refused. We don't know if that's true or not, the truth is that Carol's relationship with the Liddell family ended suddenly in the mid-1860s. Later, Alice and Carol maintained correspondence and some sporadic, albeit very cold, encounters.

Alice marriage 

When Alice grew up and became a beautiful young woman, she and Prince Leopold, Queen Victoria's youngest son, fell in love. But this love was never crowned by marriage because of Victoria's strong refusal and insistence that her son marries a princess. In 1880, Alice married Reginald Jervis, gave birth to three children, named her second son after Prince Leopold', and became a woman in the upscale community. Prince Leopold married a German princess in 1883 and his wife gave birth to a daughter he named Alice and later became godfather to Alice's son, whom she named after him. Thus, their unfinished love story was immortalized by the names of their children.

The manuscript that Carol gave to Alice

Alice kept the manuscript that Carol gave her to her husband's death in 1928, where Alice had to sell her to pay for the funeral ceremony, at sotheby's auction of an American merchant and earned him £15,400 (a fortune at the time). He, in turn, sold it to Eldridge Johnson, and after the latter's death the manuscript was sold at auction again to a group of wealthy people who donated it to the British people in recognition of Britain's resilience during World War II to Hitler, and was displayed at the British Museum in 1948.
