When I was in high school my favorite author was Edgar Rice Burrows he wrote the book about Tarzan but he had a whole series of books I donated them the school library when I graduated. Does anyone out there like this Author or did you have a favorite author in high school that you enjoyed has much has I enjoyed Mr. Burrows?

I read Tarzan and a few books in his Princess of Mars series. I really liked his stuff.

I'm glad to hear you younger folk still take reading seriously I went to your blog and I commend you for being in college and trying to build a good future for your family most guys your age are more worried about hangin with their buddies. In the words of Hee Haw "Salute".

I read several of the Tarzan books back when I was in high school as well. I don't know about the upcoming generation on this but I did enjoy reading them. They were very different from the image I had from the movies I grew up with. They were far better of course. I hope that as kids grow up today they will still want to read his works, they are classics in my opinion.

Isn't it amazing how the books can be so much better than TV or movies I think it is because our imagination is so much more creative. I found that has I read his works that he used the same pattern in the formation of his writing but it worked in whatever setting he had. I believe he was a classic writer also.

Good thing that you created this discussion.
I never read one book of his. And the public library near my house has a lot of them.
And I will start reading as soon as I finish the two I am reading now.
