THE "TARZAN" BOOKS by EDGAR RICE BURROUGHS
TARZAN OF THE APES
A white child of noble lineage brought up by a tribe of gigantic anthropoid apes and becoming, by virtue of his fighting ability and superior mentality, King of the tribe and Master of the Jungle. Such was Tarzan, the most popular character in fiction today, as introduced to the public in "Tarzan of the Apes."
THE RETURN OF TARZAN
THE BEASTS OF TARZAN
Another great jungle yarn. Tarzan's wife and child are abducted by his enemies. He follows them to Wildest Africa and, with a yell and a bound, is back at home again among the beasts of the jungle, plunging into a series of adventures, so startling, exciting, and hair-raising that one gasps with astonishment.
THE SON OF TARZAN
A PRINCESS OF MARS by EDGAR RICE BURROUGHS
An absorbing tale of adventure and romance forty-three million miles from Earth. It is hardly too much to say it is the boldest piece of imaginative fiction in this generation. John Carter, American, goes to sleep in a mysterious cave in the Arizona desert and when he wakes up finds himself on the planet Mars. There he meets with a succession of weird and astounding adventures, told in that fascinating and realistic way that makes Burroughs easily the foremost romanticist of his time.
This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published before January 1, 1929.
The longest-living author of this work died in 1950, so this work is in the public domain in countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 73 years or less. This work may be in the public domain in countries and areas with longer native copyright terms that apply the rule of the shorter term to foreign works.
