Another one of my favorite adventure novels: Dian of Lost Land by Edison Marshall (1933), about an expedition over Antarctica that discovers a lost tribe of still surviving Cro-Magnon stone age people, battling against brutish prehistoric beasts and neanderthals. Notable for great Virgil Finlay interior illustrations. It was a tremendously influential novel of its day, and helped revive the lost race novel, which by the early 1930s, was flagging. It was the inspiration for the War Eagles, one of the most famous unmade films of all time. -- source link
