Synopsis

The series "romantically presents the first stages of humanity's ascent to civilization (see Evolution); a sequel, "Overlords of Earth" (1924 Yellow Magazine), did not reach book form. Early, sapient ape-men are anachronistically shown as coexisting with inimical dinosaurs." --SFE3: "Roberts, Charles G D"
