A review by kristykay22
Tarzan and the Ant Men by Edgar Rice Burroughs

3.0

Half of this book is a four star adventure with Tarzan first befriended by and then enslaved by a race of 1/4 sized humans with a structured ant-like community structure. The other half is a 2 star commentary on gender relations with a race of neanderthals where the women are strong and hunt and subjugate the men (until Tarzan teaches the men how to use weapons and stand up for themselves). Also included: not so subtle commentary on prohibition and World War I! Very Burroughsy, and absolutely worth reading for the title alone.
