Tarzan of the Apes and the Return of Tarzan (Knickerbocker Classics)

Author(s): Edgar Rice Burroughs

Classics

Edgar Rice Burroughs' first two Tarzan books in one volume! Tarzan of the Apes (1912)and The Return of Tarzan (1913) recount the adventures of John Clayton, a man who was raised by apes after the death of his parents. Clayton was renamed "Tarzan" by the apes, and grew up in the wild without knowledge of his humanity. Both novels are classic examples of American pulp fiction, portraying Tarzan as the quintessential strong, wild, able-bodied hero. This elegantly designed clothbound edition features an elastic closure and a new introduction.
