Before Adam: A Novel of Ancestral Memory from the Dawn of Humankind

Equal parts survival adventure and evolutionary speculation, it's a story that asks how much of our deepest past still lives inside us.Written at the height of London's fascination with evolution and heredity, Before Adam is a wild, propulsive glimpse into the world before history began.A prehistoric adventure narrated through the lens of "race memory"Sabertooth cats, rival tribes, and the first sparks of human tool-makingA rare venture into speculative fiction from the author of The Call of the WildGo back before the beginning -- the past is closer than you think.
