More Than 4,000 Words Restored from Burroughs\u2019 Original Manuscript

\"\"<\/strong><\/p>\n

In 1915, as debate raged about the aggressions by the Central Powers in Europe, and whether the United States should allow itself to be drawn into the conflict that would eventually be known as World War I, Edgar Rice Burroughs penned a cautionary allegory about the consequences complete isolationism: the novel\u00a0Beyond Thirty<\/em><\/strong>. In this tale, set in the twenty-second century, the nations of North and South America have entirely cut themselves off from contact with Europe, Africa, and Asia following a terrifying global war, drawing a line at 30 degrees East in the Atlantic and 175 degrees West in the Pacific\u2014a barrier that no soul may cross without suffering the utmost punishment and disgrace. No citizen of the futuristic Pan-American Federation knows the fate of the rest of the world in the intervening two hundred years since it was isolated from the Western Hemisphere. But when an accident causes the aero-submarine\u00a0Coldwater<\/em>\u00a0to inadvertently pass beyond the dreaded thirtieth degree to the European continent, its captain and crew find a post-apocalyptic landscape devoid of all signs of civilization, populated by warlike tribes and ferocious wildlife.<\/p>\n

Beyond Thirty<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0was first published in the February 1916 issue of\u00a0All Around Magazine<\/em>, and was later retitled\u00a0The Lost Continent<\/em>\u00a0when published in paperback by Ace Books in 1963.<\/p>\n

But what has remained unknown until now is that more than 4,000 words, including lengthy passages of text, were excised from Edgar Rice Burroughs\u2019 original hand-corrected typescript by the pulp magazine editor\u2014words that have been absent from every edition since the novel\u2019s first publication. Now\u00a0Beyond Thirty: Restored Edition<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0corrects this egregious error with its historic release, including a new foreword by editor Christopher Paul Carey discussing the context in which the novel was written, Burroughs\u2019 plans for a film adaptation of the tale, and the significance of restored material.<\/p>\n

\"\"Beyond Thirty: Restored Edition<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0features classic cover art by Sanjulian and a frontispiece by Frank Frazetta, as well as rare and previously unpublished bonus materials from the archives of Edgar Rice Burroughs, Inc., in Tarzana, California.<\/p>\n

This important new edition of\u00a0Beyond Thirty<\/em>\u00a0will be available simultaneously in trade paperback, standard hardcover, and a hardcover Collector\u2019s Edition.\u00a0The book is expected to ship to customers in February 2026.<\/strong><\/p>\n

A Stone Age Future<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The year is 2137. Two hundred years ago, a horrendous war raged across the globe, so dreadful the Americas isolated themselves from their enemies in the Old World. They decreed that none should ever again pass beyond thirty degrees East\u2014upon pain of court martial, ignominy, and even death. But when the aero-submarine\u00a0<\/em>Coldwater\u00a0suffers a catastrophic loss of its buoyancy generators and drifts into the forbidden zone, Lieutenant Jefferson Turck finds himself abandoned on the shores of Old Europe. There he discovers Great Britain has been blasted back to the Stone Age, with warring tribes evading the lions that roam wild amid the ruins of battle-ravaged London. But the spirit of the lost continent\u2019s glory days survives in Victory, the dethroned Queen of England, and only Jefferson Turck stands in the way of the savage world that conspires against her.<\/em><\/p>\n

Edgar Rice Burroughs Universe\u2122
\n<\/strong><\/span>A century before the term \u201ccrossover\u201d became a buzzword in popular culture, Edgar Rice Burroughs created the first expansive, fully cohesive literary universe. Coexisting in this vast cosmos was a pantheon of immortal heroes and heroines\u2014Tarzan of the Apes, Jane Porter, John Carter, Dejah Thoris, Carson Napier, and David Innes being only the best known among them. In Burroughs\u2019 80-plus novels, their epic adventures transported them to the strange and exotic worlds of Barsoom, Amtor, Pellucidar, Caspak, and Va-nah, as well as the lost civilizations of Earth and even realms Beyond the Farthest Star. Now the Edgar Rice Burroughs Universe expands in an all-new series of canonical tales written by today\u2019s talented authors, plus new editions of the Master of Adventure\u2019s classic works!<\/p>\n
