"The People That Time Forgot" is a fantasy novel by Edgar Rice Burroughs, the
second of his Caspak trilogy. It was first published in Blue Book Magazine in
1918 and later combined with the other two segments for publication in book
form under the title of "The Land That Time Forgot". The novel is a direct
sequel to "The Land That Time Forgot" and continues the lost world saga begun
in the earlier story. The novel begins with the organization of an expedition
to rescue Bowen J. Tyler and the other castaways marooned on the large
Antarctic island of Caprona. The expedition's ship, the Toreador, locates
Caprona, and while the bulk of the crew attempts to scale the encircling
cliffs Billings flies over them in an aircraft. Billings' plane is attacked by
flying reptiles and forced down in the interior of Caspak. He saves a native
girl named Ajor from a large cat and a group of ape-men, and undertakes to
accompany her back to her people, the fully human Galus. They travel north,
encountering various creatures of the Mesozoic and Cenozoic eras, as well as
additional primitive subhuman races. The novel was adapted to film in 1977
under the direction of Kevin Connor by Britain's Amicus Productions.
