Summary "When an old parchment was found inside a copy of Alice in Wonderland in a second-hand bookshop, everything about it was a mystery. Discovered to be an Elizabethan manuscript, this is the enthralling story of its travels from Gildersome, Yorkshire in 1583 to Warrnambool, Victoria in 2013. It is a journey with so many twists and lucky escapes it should be a novel - but this is a true story"--Back cover
