Produktbeschreibung
This book is a facsimile reproduction of the original Science-Fiction & Fantasy Publications (SFFP) book, first published in 1957. Two short novels by the greatest of all fantasy adventure writers--creator of immortal tales of the jungle and on Mars. Here is adventure--BEYOND THIRTY The United Americas had been isolated for hundreds of years while the rest of the planet was wracked by incessant warfare. The Commander of an American ship patrolling the Eastern sea frontier on 30 degrees West longitude is cast adrift with three seamen by a treacherous fellow officer. The four men reach the coast of England to find a land of blasted cities. Saber toothed tigers of a new species and giant wolves have decimated the surviving naked savages. Battle and adventure on the Continent make this an exciting escape to the future. More adventure--THE MAN-EATER A huge African lion, how he was captured and brought to the United States, and his unwitting help in serving the cause of justice. Typical jungle adventure made famous by Edgar Rice Burroughs.
Autorenporträt
Edgar Rice Burroughs (1875 - 1950) was an American writer best known for his creations of the jungle hero Tarzan and the heroic Mars adventurer John Carter, although he produced works in many genres. Burroughs was in his late 60s and was in Honolulu at the time of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. Despite his age, he applied for and received permission to become a war correspondent, becoming one of the oldest U.S. war correspondents during World War II. This period of his life is mentioned in William Brinkley's bestselling novel Don't Go Near the Water.
