"The Bowl of Baal" by Robert Ames Bennet. West Kingston: Donald M. Grant, 1975. First edition. Jacket art by David Ireland
From the dust jacket:
"The Bowl of Baal" is a period piece; a nostalgic, half-forgotten survival of the year 1916 when it appeared as a long serial in "All Around" magazine.
Larry O'Brien ventures into the unknown Arabian desert during the days of World War I. His discoveries are epic; an ancient hidden race, troubled by a conflict between two beautiful priestesses; a barbaric tribe of cave dwellers; and a monstrous saurian survival that represents a threat to all.
Robert Ames Bennett's first novel, "Thyra," a thrilling tale of a Viking lost race, was published in 1901. For many years Mr. Bennet was one of the southwest's most prolific authors, turning out historical, adventure, and western fiction.
