The Lost World by Arthur Conan Doyle (Original Imported Edition)

First published in 1912, The Lost World is Arthur Conan Doyle’s adventure of exploration, scientific rivalry, and survival. Reporter Edward Malone joins the formidable Professor Challenger, the skeptical Professor Summerlee, and adventurer Lord John Roxton on an expedition to a remote South American plateau where prehistoric life may have endured beyond the reach of the modern world.

Cut off from safety, the party encounters dangers no scientific society in London is prepared to believe—and discovers that surviving the journey may be harder than proving what they found.

Blending scientific speculation, expedition adventure, and the larger-than-life personality of Professor Challenger, The Lost World remains one of Conan Doyle’s best-known works outside the Sherlock Holmes stories.
