Consistent with his Sherlock Holmes' principal of solving crimes by "deductive reasoning", Arthur Conan Doyle's Professor Challenger follows evidence, defying scientific orthodoxy, to search for animals thought to be extinct on top of an isolated plateau north of the headwaters of the Amazon River.  Just because prehistoric animals have not been seen by current scientists does not prove that they do not exist.  Only by taking this journey could they prove -- or disprove their existence at that location.This well-written story was inspired by the discovery of a real isolated plateau above Amazon.The Lost World was the first of three novels and two short stories featuring Challenger and The Lost World.
