Plot summary
Bowen Tyler has been missing in the Antarctic for several years when his friend Ben McBride puts together a rescue mission. A British naval survey ship carries the group to Caprona, and Captain Lawton stays aboard waiting for their return. McBride is joined by the paleontologist Norfolk, the gunner and mechanic Hogan, and the photographer Lady Charlotte Cunningham. Their amphibious aircraft crosses the mountain wall, where a giant pterodactyl forces it down. Stranded in a land of dinosaurs, cave people and primitive warriors, the group meets Ajor, a cave-girl who speaks English and was taught by Tyler. She joins them, and Hogan sets to work on the damaged aircraft.
