Seven years before Edgar Rice Burroughs sent John Carter to Barsoom, Edwin Lester Arnold sent a New York man to Mars on a magic carpet. He wakes on a dying world of decayed cities, listless golden people who have forgotten their own history, and a princess borne away on the river of the dead.
It sold badly, Arnold never wrote another novel, and readers have argued ever since about how much the planetary romance owes to this strange, beautiful book. This edition presents the complete and unabridged novel, newly typeset and illustrated with 38 full-page color plates.
