Summary

In uncharted Caprona, a continent lost from the map of the Earth, where Time has stopped and all primeval creatures of long-gone ages still prowl, Bowen Tyler is lost. To find Tyler, Thomas Billings travels across the world to Caprona, where even stranger mysteries await him, and a barbaric civilization hides, torn between the impassable jungle on one side and an unknown menace on the other.
The People that Time Forgot is an Edgar Rice Burroughs novel in his most exciting tradition.

A short listen and all the better for it.

The story is quite simple: some characters land on an island, one person goes to get help, meets a girl, learns a language more or less fluently in a few days, and then meets some more people he thinks are savages just because they are nothing like Americans in their ways or culture. During the journey, his ideas and assumed superiority are challenged in several ways.
It's a book of its time and some readers will be offended, especially if they don't read to the end Bear this in mind and you might enjoy it.
