Tarzan and the Ant Men (original magazine version)

by Edgar Rice Burroughs

Overview

Tarzan in his wanderings in unknown Africa comes to a great thorn forest, impenetrable, according to native belief, and shunned because it is the abode of evil spirits. The undaunted Tarzan, however, finds a way through the awful thorns and emerges into an amazingly fertile country. Here he discovers a race of pigmies about eighteen inches high, fairly advanced in civilization and living in vast community houses resembling ant hills. Tarzan sees many curious things, and has numerous startling adventures.

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.
