ARTHUR CONAN DOYLE | |
|
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859-1930) was born in Scotland. He was educated at Stonyhurst College in Germany and at Edinburgh University in Scotland, where he graduated with an M.B. in 1881 and M.D. in 1885. He was a practicing doctor when he first published A Study in Scarlet, the first of the Sherlock Holmes stories for which he became world renown. In his later years, he was a lecturer and writer on spiritualism. |
THE LOST WORLD
The author has produced a highly interesting tale of outlandish adventure, of a
sort to stir the pulses and arouse the wonder of even the "jaded" novel reader.
He has his little company of 20th century scientists and adventurers test their
courage and their skill against the huge and loathsome beasts of the Jurassic
period. They fight for their lives with pterodactyls, see iguanodons at play,
and watch the tragedies of life among gigantic dinosaurs. And they come upon a
tribe of man-apes, missing links, and for a time it looks as if the 20th century
would go down before the survivals of antiquity. Fully illustrated.
