Written by Edgar Rice Burroughs, The Land That Time Forgot follows Bowen Tyler, an American whose ship is torpedoed by a German U-boat during World War I. After a dramatic struggle, the survivors capture the submarine and drift to Caprona, a mysterious uncharted island hidden behind Antarctic ice. There they discover a lost world where evolution operates strangely—creatures progress through their lifespans, ascending the evolutionary ladder from reptiles to primitive humans. Confronting dinosaurs, savage tribes, and German captors, Tyler and the beautiful Lys La Rue fight for survival and escape, all while recording their perilous adventure in a manuscript sealed and cast into the sea.
