Synopsis
"The Lost Continent" is an adventure novel written by Edgar Rice Burroughs and published in 1916. The story takes place in the early 20th century and follows the protagonist, Jefferson Turck, an officer in the navy, who finds himself stranded in a dystopian future where civilization has regressed.

Turck embarks on a dangerous journey, facing perilous landscapes, strange creatures, and conflicting ideologies. Burroughs weaves elements of science fiction, adventure, and social commentary into the narrative. Through Turck's encounters, the author explores themes such as the consequences of war, the fragility of civilization, and the human capacity for resilience. The novel combines action-packed scenes with philosophical contemplation, providing an engaging exploration of a post-apocalyptic world.
