Four men aboard a boat find the titular strange manuscript in a cylindar floating in the sea. It turns out to be the story of Adam More, a sailor stranded in a savage hidden country in Antarctica. In this "nation" are everything from cannibals to kings and the bizarre citizens love death and poverty as other nations love life and prosperity. Can Adam escape...?
