Edgar Rice Burroughs

J. Allen St John

The Land That Time Forgot (Commemorative Edition)
Univ. of Nebraska Press/Bison Books (reprint, omnibus, trade paperback, 428 pages, $14.95 US)
Publication date: March 15, 1999 (First Edition: 1924)
A handsome re-packaging of three of Edgar Rice Burroughs' most famous adventure tales: The Land that Time Forgot, The People that Time Forgot, and Out of Time's Abyss. This Commemorative Edition has a new introduction by Mike Resnick. "One of the most popular and influential science fiction tales of all time. A captive aboard an enemy submarine, adventurer Bowen Tyler finds himself on the mysterious forgotten continent of Caspak in the South Pacific, whose savage inhabitants are dinosaurs and Bronze Age warriors. Hidden behind towering, impassable cliffs, Caspak will not easily give up its secrets. Dinosaurs terrorize tropical jungles to the south, while menacing winged humanoids dwell in cities on a large island in the north. Caught between these threats are scattered groups of human beings. Despite their differences, however, Caspak's animals and peoples are all connected in a mysterious and marvelous way. This commemorative edition features the entire Caspak trilogy in one volume, as intended by the author. Also included are a rare map of Caspak drawn by Burroughs, and the classic J. Allen St. John illustrations."
