"Tarzan the Magnificent" is a book written by Edgar Rice Burroughs, the twenty-first in his series of books about the title character Tarzan. It was originally published as two separate stories serialized in different pulp magazines; "Tarzan and the Magic Men" in "Argosy" from September to October, 1936, and "Tarzan and the Elephant Men" in "Blue Book" from November 1937 to January 1938. The two stories were combined under the title "Tarzan the Magnificent" in the first book edition, published in 1939 by Edgar Rice Burroughs, Inc. In order of writing, the book follows "Tarzan's Quest" and precedes "Tarzan and the Forbidden City". In order of book publication it falls between the former and "Tarzan and the Foreign Legion".
