Chicago: A. C. McClurg & Co, 1919. First edition of the sixth book in Burroughs' epic Tarzan series. Octavo, original orange cloth. Presentation copy, inscribed by the author on the front free endpaper, "To Edward Gilbert Best Wishes Always, Edgar Rice Burroughs. The recipient, Edward Gilbert was the brother of Burroughs' second wife and silent film actress Florence Gilbert. Near fine in the rare original dust jacket which is in very good condition with some chipping and loss to the crown and foot of the spine. Rare and desirable signed by Burroughs. The noble savage Tarzan first appeared in Burroughs' 1912 story Tarzan of the Apes, published in the pulp magazine The All-Story and in book form two years later. An archetypal feral child raised in the African jungle by Mangani great apes, Tarzan spawned innumerable works in literature and film, including 25 sequels and the popular Tarzan movie franchise which lasted from the 1930s to the 1960s. The sixth novel in the series, Jungle Tales of Tarzan is a collection of twelve loosely connected short stories of Tarzan's late teenage years, including Tarzan's First Love, A Jungle Joke, and Tarzan Rescues the Moon.
Sinopsis
Jungle Tales of Tarzan is a collection of twelve loosely-connected short stories written by Edgar Rice Burroughs, comprising the sixth book in order of publication in his series about the title character Tarzan. Chronologically it is a midquel to the first Tarzan novel, Tarzan of the Apes, as the events recounted in it actually occur within Chapter 11 of that novel, between Tarzan's avenging of his ape foster mother's death and his becoming leader of his ape tribe.
