Treasure of the Black Falcon Al Hanson's Gridley Wave Review & Fan Letters JCB's last novel, Treasure of the Black Falcon, was published by Ballantine Books, Inc., March 1967. It had been written twenty years earlier but was shelved and forgotten after numerous rejections. During the Burroughs boom of the '60s, however, brother Hulbert came across the manuscript and submitted it to Ballantine Books where it was eagerly accepted. http://www.johncolemanburroughs.com/mag/1173.html |

Highlights From This Month's

AUGUST 2004
Joogina ~ Joog, the Giant Dejah ~ JoN |
Most Burroughs fans are familiar with the various ERB gatherings and conventions in the U.S.: The Dum-Dum, ECOF, etc. But more and more fans are becoming aware of a unique Canadian event - OKAR'n'R: Rescue & Respite which provides rest and recreation for ERB fans who find themselves lost, stranded or under attack while travelling in the wild northern regions of Okar - the Forbidden Land. Our latest OKAR'n'R event plays host to Joog, the Giant and his princess, Joogina known by some by their Jasoomian names: Dick and Ginnie Spargur http://www.erbzine.com/mag11/1167.html |

ERB Discusses Books & Collecting This issue features a rare find by Danton Burroughs. Among the Burroughs Archive he has retrieved correspondence between Edgar Rice Burroughs and Herbert Hungerford of "The American News Trade Journal." These letters lead up to an article by Mr. Burroughs in which he expresses his love of books and the collecting of books, as well as his views on book marketing. He also shares entertaining anecdotes about his early years as a bookstore owner in Pocatello, Idaho and as a door-to-door book salesman in Chicago and Oak Park. http://www.erbzine.com/mag11/1165.html |
