Tarzan of the Apes
Tarzan is the orphaned son of a British nobleman, adopted while a baby by a tribe of anthropoid apes and cared for during his childhood and youth by a fierce animal foster-mother. He learns all the secrets of the wilds, he acquires the strength and agility of his associates, and in time his human intelligence aids him in becoming the leader of the tribe.
His fearless encounters with the jungle terrors, his slowly dawning realization that he is a man, his pathetic efforts to add to his knowledge, are experiences such as have been nowhere else described with so absorbing an interest.
When he meets with others of his kind and is able to note the strange differences, when he sees the woman who should be his mate but is separated from him by unsurmountable obstacles, even greater trials are before him.
It is more than a strong, unique story—it is one that will be remembered and read again and again through the coming years.

Long available only with censored text, ERBville Press is proud to present the original First Edition book version of this novel in the Tarzan Series.

About the Author

Edgar Rice Burroughs (1875-1950) had various jobs before getting his first fiction published at the age of 37. He established himself with wildly imaginative, swashbuckling romances about Tarzan of the Apes, John Carter of Mars and other heroes, all at large in exotic environments of perpetual adventure. Tarzan was particularly successful, appearing in silent film as early as 1918 and making the author famous. Burroughs wrote science fiction, westerns and historical adventure, all charged with his propulsive prose and often startling inventiveness. Although he claimed he sought only to provide entertainment, his work has been credited as inspirational by many authors and scientists.
