Summary

But what is a Snark? "Humpty Dumpty's theory, of two meanings packed into one word like a portmanteau, seems to me the right explanation for all."
-Lewis Carroll

Poor Recording

There are points in this recording where you can't not hear what is being said... It does spoil the enjoyment significantly.

Nice version.

Importantly a British accent from the mid 20th century. Well read. Doesn’t work with American accents (sorry; a bit disrespectful to Americans, but true).
