H. Rider Haggard - When the World Shook: "Truly time should be measured by events, and not by the lapse of hours."

When Humphrey Arbuthnot and his friends are marooned on a South Sea island, they awake the last two members of an advanced race, who have spent 250,000 years in a state of suspended animation. Using astral projection, Lord Oro visits London and the battlefields of the Western Front. Horrified by the degraded state of civilization, he activates an infernal technology capable of destroying the modern world. Only Oro's beautiful superwoman daughter, Yva, who has fallen in love with Humphrey, can stop him!
