A Strange Manuscript Found in a Copper Cylinder

A Strange Manuscript Found in a Copper Cylinder is James De Mille's most famous work, set in an imaginary, semi-tropical land in Antarctica that is inhabited by prehistoric monsters and a cult called the Kosekin. Inspired by Edgar Allan Poe's The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym of Nantucket and Ms. Found in a Bottle, the main story follows the adventures of Adam More, a British sailor shipwrecked on a homeward voyage from Tasmania. In the strange world More discovers, he finds a well-developed human society whose values are reversed from the 19th century Western world he hails from: death and darkness are preferred to life and light, and poverty is revered while wealth is scorned.
