The story of Tarzan and Jane has delighted fans for a century. Their romantic/adventure stories are as much fun to read now as they were when they were first written. Edgar Rice Burroughs was born in 1875 in Chicago, Illinois. Although Burroughs wrote in many genres he is best known for creating the jungle hero Tarzan. Burroughs began writing for pulp fiction magazines and in 1912 he published Tarzan of the Apes. Burroughs went against the advice of men in his field and made Tarzan a marketing success though comic strips, movies and products. There are 26 novels in the Tarzan series. Published in 1916 Tarzan and the Jewels of Opar tells the story of Tarzan's return to Opar which is where the gold from the lost city of Atlantis was believed to be located. The inhabitants of Opar were still mining the gold and when two criminals came upon this area. Tarzan must come to the rescue of the people of Opar.
