Tarzan and the Lion of Judah

From the blazing skies of Cyrenaica to the ground war in Abyssinia to the jungles of occupied Malaya, World War II echoes from these eight stories of adventure featuring Tarzan and Korak. Most of the tales in Tarzan and the Lion of Judah revolve around the Second Italo-Abyssinian War of 1935-1936, when Emperor Haile Selassie, the Negus of Ethiopia, impressed the world by standing up with his native army against fascist Prime Minister Benito Mussolini's mechanized forces. Selassie, known as the Lion of Judah, was one of the most significant African rulers of the twentieth century. Edgar Rice Burroughs was no stranger to this colorful figure, who appears under one of his ceremonial names in Tarzan the Invincible, and in Tarzan the Magnificent, the jungle lord undertakes a mission on the emperor's behalf. <p/> THE WILD ADVENTURES OF EDGAR RICE BURROUGHS
