About
It is a novel by Arthur Conan Doyle concerning an expedition to a plateau in South America where prehistoric animals still survive. The character of Professor Challenger was introduced in this book. Interestingly, for a seminal work of dinosaur-related fiction, the reptiles only occupy a small portion of the narrative. Much more time is devoted to a war between early human hominids and a vicious tribe of ape-like creatures.
