The Maartian Tales of Edgar Rice Burroughs 1
Ballantine/ Del Rey
Sci-Fiction
From the creator of Tarzan comes this classic fantasy--the best in Burroughs' Martian series. It is the story of Virginian John Carter who--during the Civil War--is drawn through astral projection to Mars, where he meets the lovely Princess of Thelium and saves her life in a rousing series of adventures.
Suddenly projected to Mars, John Carter found himself captive of the savage green men of Thark. With him was Dejah Thoris, lovely Princess of Helium. And between them and rescue lay a thousand miles of deadly enemies and unknown dangers.
