Here's a video I made for the library at which I work. I hope to one day manage to get through 4 minutes of narration without stumbling over a sentence, but I haven't quite managed it yet.
It's great that you've done this video, because my own image of Tarzan is from the Marvel comics of the 70s, which Burroughs might not have approved of. Presumably St. John's illustrations were more in line of what Tarzan's creator intended. I also agree with St. John's views on modern "art".
