Publisher's Synopsis
When an airship crashes in Mid-Atlantic, the few survivors find themselves dazed and apparently alone on a vast beach. The three, Clair Stranlay, a young Londoner and the author of deliciously decadent romances, Sir John Mullaghan, an arms manufacturer, and Keith Sinclair, an idealistic American, venture inland and stumble upon animals extinct thousands of years before. When they are confronted with a group of hunters they can scarcely believe their situation: they have travelled 25,000 years back in time, to the lost continent of Atlantis. Lewis Grassic Gibbon's classic adventure story offers a dreamlike vision of prehistoric life and opens up new vistas to the imagination.
