About Author

Edgar Rice Burroughs (1875–1950) was an American author best known for creating the Tarzan series, one of the most iconic characters in adventure fiction. Born in Chicago, Illinois, Burroughs had a varied career, including stints in the military, as a rancher, and as a businessman. However, it was his venture into writing that made him famous. His first success came with Tarzan of the Apes (1912), which introduced the world to the character of Tarzan, a man raised by apes in the jungles of Africa. The story became an instant hit, leading to numerous sequels, comic strips, movies, and adaptations.

Burroughs also created the Barsoom series, set on Mars, which inspired the science fiction genre, and the Pellucidarseries, exploring a hollow Earth. Over the course of his career, Burroughs wrote hundreds of novels, short stories, and articles, contributing to adventure and science fiction literature. His works often featured themes of exploration, adventure, and the fight between good and evil.

Burroughs’ works were incredibly influential, earning him a place as one of the early pioneers in adventure and science fiction literature. Despite the escapist nature of his stories, they have remained popular for their vivid settings, exciting plots, and memorable characters.
