In the present story, powerful enemies first kidnap his young son, then abduct Tarzan himself and leave him marooned on the African coast. Here his early training serves him in good stead; he makes himself king of the jungle and eventually foils his enemies, and returns with his rescued wife and child to England". Illustrations by J.
