Lewis Carroll

As a young man, Lewis excelled in mathematics, like his father, and won numerous prizes. Mathematics was his strongest subject in school, but he enjoyed literature works by William Shakespeare and John Ruskin. He appreciated literature to the point of writing his own poetry and short stories for his siblings enjoyment.
               Carroll then followed in his fathers footsteps and went to a religious college to become an Anglican clergyman. He then went to Oxford and preceded to follow in his fathers footsteps, and graduated with the same honors and position of Mathematical Lecturer. Math was apart of Lewis Carroll's life, and from his actions through life, it mattered to him to be like his father.
