Beschreibung:
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.
THE ORIGINAL MAGAZINE TEXT!
THE MAD KING: All Ludstadt was in an uproar. The mad king had escaped. For ten years no man of them all had set eyes upon the face of the boy-king who had been hastened to the grim castle of Blentz upon the death of the old king, his father. Into this troubled country came Barney Custer of Beatrice, Nebraska, a virtual twin of the mad king.
BARNEY CUSTER OF BEATRICE tells of the fearless young American's second visit to Lutha, where he squares a few accounts he was forced to overlook in his hasty retreat from the tiny kingdom after he had incurred the jealous hatred of the ingrate monarch, whose scepter he had restored.
