Jungle Girl (The Land of Hidden Men)
Adventure in the lost city of a secret kingdom. Even today,
Asia, vast continent of ancient civilizations and mysterious peoples, has
many corners little known to the rest of the world. Gordon King, a daring
young American explorer, stumbles upon the thousands year-old secret of
THE LAND OF HIDDEN MEN. The dangers he has to face, his rescue of a jungle
princess and his combat against the warriors of the lost city of Pnom Dhek
are thrilling as told by the last exciting line. "There are other things
deep in the jungle, my lord, that no man may look upon and live." Within
the dark shadows of the jungle the ruins of their cities still stand, and
down the dark aisles of the forest pass the ancient kings and warriors
and little sad-faced queens on ghostly elephants. We might escape My Lord
the Tiger and the wild elephants, but no man may look upon the ghost of
the dead Khmers and live. But Gordon King, child of the twentieth century,
was not to be frightened away by what seemed foolish superstition. The
young American was soon to find what a courageous man might easily enter
the treacherous depths of the jungle, but it was quite another matter as
to weather he might ever come out again, alive.
