| In 1912, a frustrated writer sat at his typewriter seeking armchair adventure. Edgar Rice Burroughs had failed at nearly everything he had tried, yet he knew a good story when he read one. The tale of an ape-man torn between primal desires and civilization’s demands seemed like it might sell. A century later, in movies, on television, and in 74 novels, Tarzan still swings. In this digital short, award-winning author Bruce Watson explores the fantastically fertile mind of Edgar Rice Burroughs and the legacy of his creations, not just Tarzan but John Carter of Mars and many more. |
