This book could have been all that ERB wrote and it would have been enough, but he did so much more. I think the following Ray Bradbury quotation says a lot about the value of ERB's work: "Edgar Rice Burroughs never would have looked upon himself as a social mover and shaker with social obligations. But as it turns out – and I love to say it because it upsets everyone terribly – Burroughs is probably the most influential writer in the entire history of the world." Bradbury continued that "By giving romance and adventure to a whole generation of boys, Burroughs caused them to go out and decide to become special."

The only problem with this book is that it stops before the story is finihed.

This could have been all that ERB did

A story to love for all time. So much deeper and fuller than the movies based on these stories. Edgar Rice Burroughs did not have internet resources to double check his "ape info," so just let the story take you and forget the details. This narrator, Peter Batchelor, is among my favorites.

An unlikely, yet wonderful story.

So this is a great reading of a classic book, I love the narrator. The story is definitely from the time and is a tad bit racist, but still a great story.

A classic
