The Lost World
Unabridged Large Print Edition
by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
The Lost World…
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859 – 1930) is known the world over as the creator of the famous consulting detective, Sherlock Holmes. To a lesser extent, his irascible Professor Challenger is known to generations of readers.
The Lost World is one of Conan Doyle’s best-known novels, a tale of adventure on a remote plateau deep in the Amazonian jungle, where steep cliffs on all sides have isolated life atop the plateau from the rest of the world for eons.
Professor Challenger and his company of intrepid adventurers make their way into Conan Doyle’s “Lost World”, only to find themselves exposed to dangers they could never have anticipated, even if they had really believed Challenger’s claims of the wonders to be seen in the mysterious, isolated world he had described. Challenger himself had reached the threshold of the plateau on a previous adventure, but even he is not prepared for what awaits in the land above the cliffs, where prehistoric creatures even more astonishing than the dinosaurs he predicted lurk in the dense forests.
Conan Doyle’s tale has been a perennial favorite with readers since it first appeared over one hundred years ago, inspiring several film versions, along with television programs, cartoons and comic books, some faithful to the story and some only loosely based on it.
This quality large print edition is not an electronic scan or reproduction. It has been prepared by human editors and includes the complete unabridged text of Arthur Conan Doyle’s classic tale of a prehistoric world atop an isolated plateau deep in the Amazonian jungle in a freshly edited and formatted edition printed on heavyweight bright white paper with a fully laminated cover featuring an original full color design. Additional material included in this edition are a biographical sketch of the author and a detailed selected bibliography of his work.
A generous 7.44″ x 9.69″ page size means that by increasing the page size along with the font size and eliminating many of the blank pages and large blank spaces around chapter titles included in many books we are able to reduce unnecessary paper waste and printing costs and make complete, unabridged quality large print editions available at reasonable cost.
