"In 1972, Popular Library published Philip Jose Farmer's Tarzan Alive, a biography of this fictional character written as if he were a real person. Later, Esquire magazine published Farmer's 'Tarzan Lives: An Exclusive Interview with the Eighth Duke of Greystoke,' and his 'Extracts from the Memoirs of "Lord Greystoke"' was published in a collection of his works.

Now for the first time, these three amazing narratives are published together, along with a new foreword by Win Scott Eckert, an introduction by Mike Resnick, five lengthy addenda and a selected bibliography of more than 200 resources.

This easily readable scholarly tome filled me with nostalgia for the first time I visited Africa with Tarzan many years ago and reminded me that, in the books, at least, Tarzan still lives... Grade: A."
