The Legend of Tarzan
Posted by user510 on June 28, 2016 at 10:35:14:
Edgar Rice Burroughs and his Tarzan novels. After having seen the trailer for the upcoming Tarzan movie (noted in the thread title) I decided to finally, after nearly one lifetime, give the novel a read.
So I went to Project Gutenberg and downloaded the first of the Tarzan novels; Tarzan of the Apes.
Like all of Burrough's novels this is a quick read with an entertaining and lively narrative. The inspiration for all of the movies. And the movies never live up to this novel. They can't. Anyway, just saying I may not bother to see this movie, but I'm glad I read the novel. One of Burrough's best, if not The best.
