Chicago: A. C. McClurg & Co, 1928. Full Description:
BURROUGHS, Edgar Rice. Tarzan Lord of the Jungle. Chicago: A. C. McClurg & Co., 1928.
First edition. Octavo (7 3/8 x 4 7/8 inches; 186 x 125 mm). [viii],1-377, [1, blank] pp. With the typographical error on page 208 and no mention of further printings on the copyright page. With five inserted plates, including frontispiece.
Publisher's full green cloth. Front board and spine stamped and lettered in black. Cloth very lightly sunned at spine. Lightly rubbed along extremities, and corners. A minimal crease to top of text black, barely affecting a few leaves. Still about fine. In publisher's pictorial dust jacket. Jacket exceptionally bright and about fine. Overall a near fine copy.
"Tarzan, Lord of the Jungle is not just another chapter in the famous ape-man's thrilling career, it is by far greater than any other of the wonderful series of Tarzan stories. The name of Tarzan alone is a promise of thrills that has never disappointed a reader. In none of his celebrated books has Edgar Rice Burroughs equalled the charm and vivid sensational appeal of the exciting adventures that he has written into Tarzan, Lord of the Jungle. It is an epic of wilderness adventure, wholly unique and wholly delightful. Astounding, enthralling and matchless in interest are these latest exploits of Tarzan- the most original and fascinating character in modern fiction." (from back panel).

Sinopse
Stimbol drew his hunting knife from his scabbard. He would slip its point through the wild man’s heart...The ape man moved – consciousness was returning. Stimbol realised that he must act quickly and at the same instant a great hairy man reached out through the foliage and a might hand closed over his shoulders. With a screaming curse he turned to look into the hideous face of Bolgani. He tried to strike at the shaggy breast of his antagonist with his hunting knife, but the puny weapon was torn from his grasp and hurled into the bushes. The great yellow fangs were bared against his throat as Tarzan opened his eyes...
