C. J. Cutcliffe Hyne

In its time, this was the most famous novel of many about the continent of Atlantis. In our day, nearly a century later, it must still rank as one of the best. Vivid prose describes the geological upheaval that ended a civilization. Characters are totally believable and utterly unforgettable.
