Anniversary of “The Lost U-Boat” Novelette

Anniversary of The Lost U-Boat Novelette

Friendly PSA from our facebook fan Rick Barry:

On this day in 1917, ERB completed “The Lost U-Boat,” a novelette which became “The Land That Time Forgot,” part one of the Caspak trilogy. Today we are going to look at some illustrations inspired by the story.

Our final illustration is from the February, 1927 issue of “Amazing Stories,” which published the entire Caspak trilogy in three issues. This is Frank R. Paul’s illustration of a scene from Chapter 6, along with the associated excerpt from the text.

Thanks for the reminder, Rick!
