The book Tarzan of the Apes, the first in the Tarzan series, made American writer Edgar Burroughs (1875–1950) famous. Tarzan was born into the family of the British Lord Greystoke, who, together with his wife, was abandoned in the wild jungles of Africa by sea-robbers who had thrown them off a ship. His parents died when the boy was an infant, and he grew up among apes. Human intelligence helped the boy not only to win in battles with predators, but also to lead the tribe of big monkeys.
