The Lost Continent by Edgar Rice Burroughs, Science Fiction Hardcover - 2002

by Edgar Rice Burroughs; Introduction by Amy Sterling Casil

The year is 2137. A terrible storm at sea forces American lieutenant Jefferson Turck to disobey the law and to seek safe harbor in England--where he found that two centuries of isolation have desolated the land. The damaged ship found a Europe that is no longer an enemy--a ruined land that is utterly unable to be an enemy--or a friend.


Summary

A future Europe has spiraled into barbarism. The Western Hemisphere stands alone, isolated and sheltered from the destruction - for now. Influenced by the events of World War I, this is the year 2137 as portrayed by Edgar Rice Burroughs' in his science fiction novel The Lost Continent, its subtitle Beyond Thirty being the longitude that Western Hemisphere inhabitants are forbidden to pass.

From the publisher

The year is 2137. Two hundred years ago -- in our time, more or less -- Eurasia fought a war to end all wars, a war that meant, for all intents and purposes, the end of the Old World. The Americas managed to retain their civilization -- but only by engaging by the most extreme form or isolationism imaginable for two centuries, now, no American has ventured east of the thirtieth parallel. "East for the East . . ." the slogan went, "The West for the West!" Until a terrible storm at sea forced American lieutenant Jefferson Turck to disobey the law, seeking safe harbor in England -- where he found that two centuries of isolation have desolated the land. The damaged ship found a Europe that is no longer an enemy -- a ruined land that is utterly unable to be an enemy -- or a friend.
