Edgar Rice Burroughs, the future author of the Tarzan stories, was born 150 years ago. A failed businessman, trying his hand at writing, he could hardly have imagined the monumental destiny destined for his creation. The image of a phenomenally strong, irresistibly attractive, fearless, and exceptionally noble heir to an aristocratic family, raised in the wild jungle, quickly captured the hearts of readers and became a harbinger of the coming superhero culture.
This edition includes the fourth and fifth novels in the Tarzan cycle—"The Son of Tarzan" and "Tarzan and the Treasure of Opar"—as well as a collection of short stories, "Jungle Tales," which recounts Lord Greystoke's teenage years among a tribe of giant apes (according to publication order, it ranks sixth in the cycle).
About ten years have passed since the events described in the novel "Tarzan and His Beasts." Tarzan, thanks to his incredible ability to adapt to any environment, has become fully accustomed to life in civilized London and has taken to calling himself by his real name—John Clayton, Lord Greystoke. He and Jane have a growing son, Jack, and it seems nothing can disturb the family's finally found peace and prosperity.

The novel "The Son of Tarzan" and the short story collection "Jungle Tales" are being published in new translations.
