By: Sir Arthur Conan DOYLE (1859 - 1930)
The Lost World is a 1912 novel by Arthur Conan
Doyle concerning an expedition to a plateau (native name is Tepuyes) in
South America (Venezuela) where prehistoric animals (dinosaurs and other
extinct creatures) 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. (summary by
