About the work

The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:

LibriVox recording of The Maracot Deep by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Read in English by Thomas A. Copeland. Professor Maracot, accompanied by two American associates, conducts an exploration of the Atlantic Ocean floor, beginning in a diving bell of his invention. The results exceed the underwater thrills we may recall from Sea Hunt and Jacques Cousteau. Maracot, a contrastive successor to Professor Challenger, whom Edgar Rice Burrows had borrowed from Doyle, leads his colleagues into unanticipated adventures that rival those of Burrows's Barsoom novels. These climax with a supernatural contest of wills. (Summary by Thomas A. Copeland)
