  The rescue party sent for the men lost inside the lost continent finds a land where evolution runs forward in a single lifetime, and one of them falls in love with a girl from a tribe that has no word for tomorrow. Burroughs wrote the three Caspak stories in 1918 and built the biology to a rule he keeps: everything born in that place begins at the bottom and climbs. The middle book is the one that explains the trick. Fifty-seven plates of moonlight seascapes by painters including Joseph Heard and Carl Bille give the lost continent's long voyage its proper weather.
