The works of the "Grandfather of American Science Fiction" got McWhorter interested in reading at the tender age of 5. His mother, Nell Dismukes McWhorter, used Burroughs' fanciful prose to persuade her son to take imaginary trips to Mars or Africa through Burroughs' books, which were treasured in the McWhorter household in Washington, D.C. That made a marked impression on the young man. The first Burroughs story he read was A Princess of Mars (1912). "I used to smuggle a flashlight to my bed to read Burroughs after lights out," McWhorter says. "When mother read to me, I'd ask her the definition of the words and we looked them up in the dictionary." "The happiest day of my life was when my father drove me to the train station to pick up a new collection of Burroughs' books. I was 12 at the time." https://www.erbzine.com/mag4/0421.html |

When George revitalized the Burroughs Bibliophiles by publishing his first issue of The Burroughs Bulletin (New Series), his plan was to feature an ERB title in each edition of his quarterly glossy magazine. This he did for 82 issues and the obvious book to feature in BB #1 was A Princess of Mars. Read George's History of the Burroughs Bibliophiles HERE In 2004, George authorized my reprinting of the series and sent me a number of the issues that weren't in my collection. https://www.erbzine.com/mag52/5200.html I then created an BB Index for all issues and George sent detailed contents information for each issue before it was released. The updates to the Index ceased after George's 82 issues. BURROUGHS BULLETIN NO. 1 A PRINCESS OF MARS ISSUE Read Issue 1 in ERBzine: Pages 1-23 and 24-44 https://www.erbzine.com/mag52/5201.html |
