In an instant there sloughed from the heart and mind and soul of Waldo Emerson Smith-Jones every particle of civilization and culture and refinement that had required countless ages in the building, stripping him naked, age on age, down to the primordial beast that had begot his first human progenitor.
He saw red as he leaped for the throat of the man-beast whose ruthless hands were upon Nadara.from the book
Back in Boston, Massachusetts, U.S.A., he was a blueblood named Waldo Smith-Jones. But when he found himself in a desperate effort to survive on a lost island of primitive men and beasts, he won not only a new name but also the hand of the cave princess, Nadara.
Edgar Rice Burroughs (1875-1950), born in Chicago, was educated at Michigan Military Academy and served briefly in the U.S. Cavalry. His early life was marked by several attempts at careers. While working as a pencil-sharpener salesman, he began writing, first advertising copy and then fiction. His first published piece, "Under the Moons of Mars," appeared in 1911 and was so successful that Burroughs began writing full-time. The first Tarzan story appeared in 1912, followed in 1914 by Tarzan of the Apes, the first of twenty-five such books. The area where he lived north of Los Angeles later became the suburb of Tarzana.
Patrick Lawlor, an AudioFile Earphones Award winner and Audie Award finalist, is also an accomplished stage actor, director, and combat choreographer who has worked in America and Europe. He has been an actor and stuntman in both TV and film. He lives in Milwaukee.
