Set during the turmoil of World War I, Edgar Rice Burroughs' fantasy The Land that Time Forgot transports readers to an amazing lost world. This attractive new edition contains all three novels in the classic Caspak trilogy--The Land that Time Forgot, The People that Time Forgot, and Out of Time's Abyss--as well as Burroughs's original map of Caspak and a glossary.
When a German U-boat sinks their ship, British and American survivors commandeer the enemy submarine. Going far off-course into the South Seas, they end up on the mysterious island of Caspak, where savage human tribes exist alongside several species of dinosaurs and other forms of prehistoric life. Will they ever be able to escape?
