Four yachtsmen find a manuscript sealed in a copper cylinder. It is the manuscript of Adam More, a British sailor shipwrecked on the homeward voyage from Tasmania. After passing through a subterranean tunnel of volcanic origin, he finds himself in a "lost world" of prehistoric animals, plants and people sustained by volcanic heat despite the long Antarctic night.

A Strange Manuscript Found in a Copper Cylinder was originally serialized in Harper's Weekly over nineteen installments, from 7 January 1888 (No. 1620) to 12 May 1888 (No. 1638). The story was quickly reprinted in a variety of editions, and in 1969 it was reprinted as a part of the popular New Canadian Library series from McClelland and Stewart. This case study draws on the 2011 edition published by Broadview Press and edited by Daniel Burgoyne.The satirical utopia depicted in the story upends generic conventions and tropes surrounding heroic explorers, genteel society, cultural encounters, and scientific inquiry. De Mille's narrative follows the adventure of Adam More as he encounters the Kosekin people living in a tropical Antarctica. The Kosekins revere death and seek poverty. More's adventure is, in turn, framed by the recovery of his story found in a copper cylinder by a group of upper-class British men, becalmed on the sea in their yacht.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
