When one thinks of the classic adventure-story authors of the pulp fiction era, H. Rider Haggard, Talbot Mundy, and Rafael Sabatini may come first to mind. But you shouldn't overlook Arthur O. Friel's stellar contributions—particularly his stories featuring Lourenco and Pedro, two workers on a rubber-tree plantation in the Amazon Jungle. Their adventures in the Amazon's mysterious back-country certainly deserve more than honorable mention—they influenced Robert E. Howard and countless other pulp writers and readers.

The Tapir is one of the tales in the "Lourenco and Pedro" series. (See also Amazon Nights, by Arthur O. Friel, which contains other tales in the series.)
