A review by dmcke013
The Lost World by Arthur Conan Doyle

4.0

Arthur Conan Doyle's (more famous for his Sherlock Holmes creation) adventure novel, following a scientific expedition to a plateau in the Amazon basin of South America, where prehistoric animals still survive.

Interesting not solely from a plot standpoint, but also as a window into the then contemporary views on the Dinosauria family: who mostly come across as slow and dull-witted compared to more recent interpretations, such as those in Michael Crichton's Jurassic Park.
