Part I was first published in 1896. Part II on which Carroll was working at the time of his death in January 1898 , was never published, and vanished without a trace around the turn of the century. Eighteen years ago Professor W. W. Bartley, III, discovered part of the missing manuscript. Since then he has been able to track down the missing galley proofs and manuscript for Part II.'
