{"product_id":"tarzan-alive-a-definitive-biography-of-lord-greystoke-9780803269217","title":"Tarzan Alive: A Definitive Biography of Lord Greystoke","description":"Through the tales of Edgar Rice Burroughs, generations of readers have thrilled to the adventures of Lord Greystoke (aka John Clayton, but better known as Tarzan of the Apes). In this biography Philip Jos  Farmer pieces together the life of this fantastic man, correcting Burroughs's errors and deliberate deceptions and tracing Tarzan's family tree back to other extraordinary figures, including Sherlock and Mycroft Holmes, the Scarlet Pimpernel, Doc Savage, Nero Wolfe, and Bulldog Drummond. \u003ci\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003eTarzan Alive\u003c\/i\u003e offers the first chronological account of Tarzan's life, narrated in careful detail garnered from Burroughs's stories and other sources. From the ill-fated voyage that led to Greystoke's birth on the isolated African coast to his final adventures as a group captain in the RAF during World War II, Farmer constructs a comprehensive and authoritative account. Farmer's assertion that Tarzan was a real person has led him to craft a biography as well researched and compelling as that of any character from conventional history. This definitive Bison Books edition also includes Farmer's \"Exclusive Interview with Lord Greystoke\" as well as \"Extracts from the Memoirs of 'Lord Greystoke'\" first anthologized in \u003ci\u003eMother Was a Lovely Beast\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bison Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/01\/2006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780803269217\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 312\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.66h x 5.40w x 0.84d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/15\/2006 pg. 143\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eAsimov's Science Fiction\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/01\/2007 pg. 134\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Philip Jose Farmer, Philip Jos\u0026#233; Farmer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36643682812060,"sku":"9780803269217","price":21.21,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_aa8bc29d-8b3e-415e-91c0-457c9ed14444.jpg?v=1603857071","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/tarzan-alive-a-definitive-biography-of-lord-greystoke-9780803269217","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
