Burroughs creates a vivid and imaginative world, filled with strange creatures and landscapes. The book is considered a classic of the science fiction genre and has inspired countless adaptations and spin-offs, including the popular John Carter film.I am a very old man; how old I do not know. Possibly I am a hundred, possibly more; but I cannot tell because I have never aged as other men, nor do I remember any childhood. So far as I can recollect I have always been a man, a man of about thirty. I appear today as I did forty years and more ago, and yet I feel that I cannot go on living forever.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
