1931 Hunting of the Snark vintage book by Lewis Carroll author of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland illustrated by Henry Holiday

The Hunting of the Snark is a nonsense poem by Lewis Carroll, published in 1876, that follows a bizarre crew on a quest to hunt a mysterious creature called a Snark, which may be a dangerous Boojum. Structured in eight sections called "fits," the fantastical epic combines whimsical language, wordplay, and darker themes, featuring a cast of characters like the Bellman, the Baker, and the Beaver, all on a journey guided by a blank map. The poem is known for its linguistic acrobatics, rhythmic structure, and enigmatic ending, where the Snark hunter vanishes, suggesting the creature was a Boojum.
