When Atlantis Was

by H.F. Arnold

What if time were made of intersecting dimensions beyond our comprehension? And what if a battleship were to slip though one of those temporal intersections? And what if the sailors on said boat found themselves suddenly in the prehistoric past, battling giant reptiles and primitive hominids? And what if, at the same time, a craft from another world landed in that primeval forest?

These questions and more are answered in this classic pulp tale of time travel and secret history by H. F. Arnold, a journalist-cum-genre fiction writer whose prose was admired by H. P. Lovecraft.

About the author

Henry Ferris Arnold is another "lost" author from the days of the pulps, something that is quite surprising since "The Night Wire" was considered the most popular story ever published in Weird Tales. What few sources give any information about his life say that he was born in 1901, worked as an author and journalist and died in 1963, but even these sketchy details (and his actual name, for that matter) may, or may, not, be true. All that is known as fact about Arnold, is that his fictional output, at least in the fields of science fiction and horror, consisted of only 3 works: "The Night Wire", appearing in Weird Tales in 1926; "The City of Iron Cubes," serialized in the March and April issues of Weird Tales and a two-part serial "When Atlantis Was," that appeared in the October and December 1937 issues of Amazing Stories. Outside of that, Arnold remains an enigma.
