Publisher Description
The year is 2137, and war has torn Europe apart and the entire earth’s civilization has been declining for nearly two hundred years. The United States becomes a distant memory to the world, and the rest of the world, to it in its isolation. It isn’t until an American explorer ventures off only to rediscover the Old World that we realize that the one-time leading power has backslid into an unrecognizable, savage land, and the people within it: savages. From there, he tries to rebuild the remains. In this thrilling science-fiction novel, you will reflect on humanity itself and what makes up civilization.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
In the year 2137, the Old World and the New have been separated for more than two centuries in the aftermath of a devastating war. Finally, an American naval officer, his ship caught in a storm, is forced to land in England, where he finds tigers running wild in Devon (among other sad wonders), in this reprint of Edgar Rice Burroughs's The Lost Continent: A Tale of the Lost Continent, first published in 1917.
