Evarts, R.C. & E.L. Barron.  ALICE'S ADVENTURES IN CAMBRIDGE.

Cambridge; The Harvard Lampoon: 1913.

Genial hijinks from the staff of the Harvard Lampoon using the popular 
theme of Alice in Wonderland, and illustrated with amusing Tenniel-like pen 
and ink drawings. One might suppose that such undergraduate buffoonery 
would be unintelligible to people unfamiliar with Harvard or Cambridge, 
but, although there is certainly a certain amount of humor pertaining to 
Harvard of the day, there is also quite a bit which is applicable to 
college and scholarly life in general -the chapter on the Student Council 
Meeting, for instance, will be readily recognizable to almost everyone...

Hardcover. 5.25"x6.75", 67 pages, b/w illustrations; pictorial covers; 
front cover with a crease and it appears a mend; a little internal soil and 
very light spotting to the preliminaries.  $100.00
