The ape man battles WWI soldiers and fantastical ant men in these three adventure novels and a volume of short stories from the original Tarzan series. Jungle Tales of Tarzan: This short story collection features twelve thrilling tales of young Tarzan's life with a tribe of African apes—from first love to battles with a witchdoctor and more. Tarzan the Untamed: As World War I breaks out in Africa, Tarzan's estate is destroyed by German soldiers. Believing Jane to have died in the attack, the ape man seeks his revenge by wreaking havoc on the Imperial German Army. Tarzan the Terrible: Tarzan's search for his missing wife, Jane, takes him from the modern threats of tanks and war planes into a land of dinosaurs and other prehistoric dangers. Tarzan and the Ant Men: Tarzan discovers the mysterious land of Minuni, inhabited by a race of tiny, warlike people. When he gets caught up in their conflict, he is shrunk down to their miniature size.
Edgar Rice Burroughs (1875-1950) is the creator of Tarzan, one of the most popular fictional characters of all time, and John Carter, hero of the Barsoom science fiction series. Burroughs was a prolific author, writing almost 70 books before his death in 1950, and was one of the first authors to popularize a character across multiple media, as he did with Tarzan’s appearance in comic strips, movies, and merchandise. Residing in Hawaii at the time of the attack on Pearl Harbour in 1941, Burroughs was drawn into the Second World War and became one of the oldest war correspondents at the time. Edgar Rice Burroughs’s popularity continues to be memorialized through the community of Tarzana, California, which is named after the ranch he owned in the area, and through the Burrough crater on Mars, which was named in his honour.
