vi, 314 pp. 8vo. Wrap-around jacket illustration by Fred J. Arting. 'How the son of an English nobleman came to be born in Africa and raised as 'Tarzan' by a she-ape; relating his life in the jungle, his meeting Jane Porter and his journey to America to find her... When G&D took over this title from Burt in 1927, the book was completely reset in new type, effecting a reduction in the number of pages from 400+1 to 392. The dust jacket was also revised; while Arting's original wraparound scene was retained, it now appeared in the full sunlit color of broad daylight, whereas the earlier McClurg and Burt jackets had shown a nighttime version in moonlit silhouette.'
