These Apes of Mr. Phillpotts ruled the earth before Man appeared on its surface. In many ways they were rather like ourselves. For example, they believed that they were the supreme achievement of the Creative Power, whom they worshipped as the Great Ape. Meeting together in solemn council they shared their latest discoveries — the edibility of the oyster, no less than the invention of war. The affairs of such a council are the material of this extremely diverting book, which — it need hardly be said — afford Mr. Phillpotts plenty of opportunity for exercising his gift of humorous satire. There is a remarkable dénoûement to the Council meeting — but for that we must refer our readers to the book itself.
