The Treasure of Atlantis, by J. Allan Dunn, [1916], at sacred-texts.com


p. 1

THE TREASURE OF ATLANTIS

Here is an action-filled fantastic written in the early days of Edgar Rice Burroughs and employing many of the devices that the master hand used in opening up a whole new field of fiction in that remote period prior to 1920. Here is a novel from the 1916 pages of the half-fabled All Around magazine, full of the nostalgia and dreams of that era when the world was so much larger and life was, accordingly, less complicated.

In J. Allan Dunn's THE TREASURE OF ATLANTIS, an orchid hunter's discovery is the catalyst that leads an expedition into the interior of South America to the lost remnant of ancient Atlantis. Cut off from the modern world, Atlantis offers swashbuckling intrigue, danger, and action that is eminently suitable for the "Time-Lost" series. Here is thrilling adventure out of the past in the Edgar Rice Burroughs tradition.
