Böcker av Edgar Rice Burroughs

A young white man alone in the primitive jungle, surrounded by great anthropoid apes, struggling to keep up with them, fighting to prove his manhood, learning to understand the savage beasts in order to learn the deadly are of survival. That's Tarzan's upbringing - his teachers savage beasts hungering for his blood. This is the ORIGINAL magazine text.

This is the First Edition of the original magazine text of both stories combined into one book! Nu, the hero of the book, was a mighty hunter. Nat-ul was the belle of the pre-historic tribe, greatly desired by all the young men, but Nat-ul loved only Nu and THE ETERNAL SAVAGE is the story of the love of Nu and Nat-ul through the ages. Do you remember "The Eternal Lover"? Do you recall how Nu, the son of Nu, appeared out of the prehistoric past to claim the beautiful Victoria Custer as his mate, and how the cave man led her into the jungle after he had rescued her from the Arabs? "Sweetheart Primeval" tells of their later experiences. If you believe in the doctrine of reincarnation this story will thrill you-even if you do not, it will keep you entertained until the very last word.

After a violent tropical storm, Orando of the Utengi comes upon a strange bronze giant pinned under a fallen tree. Orando calls the creature Muzimo for it cannot remember its own name and therefore is most probably a god-a god who will protect Orando from the steel-taloned Leopard Men. Little does Orando know that his protector is Tarzan of the Apes-for the Lord of the Jungle has suffered an injury and does not know himself who he is! When the Tarzan series appeared in paperback form from Ballantine Books in the 1960's, Edgar Rice Burroughs Inc. decided to "tone" down ethnic content. So, most of the books in the series were censored. These censored texts are the ones which Gutenberg.org (an Internet Public Domain story site) picked up and which most reprinters of the stories are using. ERBville Press always goes back to the original sources of the text, whether magazine, First Edition book, or newspaper, for their reprinting.

Human chessmen who must fight to the death at their masters' command-such is but one of the many thrills that await the reader in this terrific tale of adventure and discovery in the lost cities of Barsoom-the Mars of Edgar Rice Burroughs! Gahan of Gathol pits his sword against heads without bodies and bodies without heads, against a fiendish monarch, and against the terrors of a forbidden city-with his reward the hand of a captive maiden, Tara, the Warlord's daughter.

The complete, uncensored, magazine version! In one of his early adventures, Tarzan of the Apes visited the mysterious, ruinous city of Opar that dated back to Atlantean times, and was now inhabited by a strange horde of bloodthirsty, apelike priests headed by La, the beautiful high priestess of the Flaming God. Thence he brought back a very little of the great store of ingoted gold hidden deep in a hill, and was rich for life. In the present story you shall learn how and why Tarzan re-turned to the mysterious city, and what he found there - also many other things!

The son of "Tarzan of the Apes" is lured to the jungle. With his companion, Akut, a bull ape, he conquers the wild beasts, blacks and Arabs of the African wilderness and thereby gains the name of Korak, the Killer. The youth thrives on the life of the outdoors; the companionship of the ever-faithful anthropoid and a child of the Wilds, Meriem, to whom he is devoted, gives him four fold courage. With his giant strength he keeps at bay the savages of the forest. Alone he conquers tribes of Arabs and blacks. They are beset by enemies who covet Meriem, but love for his girl-treasure gives Korak superhuman strength to defend her.

The Land that Time Forgot - In the South Pacific is a mountainous island called Caspak. Winged humanoid creatures, dinosaurs, ferocious beasts of prey, Neanderthals, "wild ape-men," and monstrous reptiles terrorize each other, and the mixed crew of WW 1 adventurers fight across the island. The People that Time Forgot - Ex-cowboy Tom Billings leads a rescue mission to save Bowen Tyler, the protagonist of The Land That Time Forgot. In the midst of hair-raising adventures, he has more trouble keeping his own skin intact than in finding his friend. Out of Time's Abyss - The Lost world saga continues. It connects the previous two installments, bringing in characters introduced in each. Burroughs completes the revelation of his lost world's unique biological system, only hinted at in the previous installment, in which the slow progress of evolution in the world outside is recapitulated as a matter of individual metamorphosis. This system forms a thematic element serving to unite the three Caspak stories.

Billy Byrne squared his broad shoulders and filled his deep lungs with the familiar medium which is known as air in Chicago. He was standing upon the platform of a New York Central train that was pulling into the La Salle Street Station, and though the young man was far from happy something in the nature of content pervaded his being, for he was coming home. After something more than a year of world wandering and strange adventure Billy Byrne was coming back to the great West Side and Grand Avenue. Now there is not much upon either side or down the center of long and tortuous Grand Avenue to arouse enthusiasm, nor was Billy particularly enthusiastic about that more or less squalid thoroughfare. The thing that exalted Billy was the idea that he was coming back to show them. He had left under a cloud and with a reputation for genuine toughness and rowdyism that has seen few parallels even in the ungentle district of his birth and upbringing. A girl had changed him. She was as far removed from Billy's sphere as the stars themselves; but Billy had loved her and learned from her, and in trying to become more as he knew the men of her class were he had sloughed off much of the uncouthness that had always been a part of him, and all of the rowdyism. Billy Byrne was no longer the mucker.

FIRST EDITION! "A half-mile above city streets mystery and murder stalk a scientific penthouse, and Macklin Donovan faces unknown and deadly science." So read the blurb in Fantastic Adventures pulp magazine for July 1939 when "The Scientists Revolt", a rewritten version of "Beware!", was first published. We present both versions of the story.

Edgar Rice Burroughs (1875-1950) was an American author, best known for his creation of the jungle hero Tarzan and Mars adventurer John Carter. A Princess of Mars is Burroughs' first novel, predating the Tarzan series, and the first of his Barsoom series. The story is set on Mars, a dying planet with a harsh desert environment which was based on the work of the astronomer Percival Lowell.
