I enjoy ERB's writing I enjoy ERB's writing. He keeps the story moving, puts the characters into seeming inescapable situation, then rescues them. Of course, the rescues defy timing, logic, and often human possibility, but it's fun. And that's the only reason one reads a Burroughs book.

Another great Edgar Rice Burroughs book Roger - Portland, Texas Some of the old writers like ERB have reached the status of writing classics because what they write is that good. Even though this book was published well over a century ago it reads as well now as the day it was written. A good story is just that. And that's why it's a classic.. Excellent! Chrystal Roe These tales never lose their magic. I have read the stories of Tarzan many times over the last 50 years. I received my first Tarzan book for my sixth birthday and I've been hooked ever since.
