Tarzan Triumphant is a novel written by Edgar Rice Burroughs, the fifteenth in his series of books about the title character Tarzan. The novel was originally serialized in the magazine Blue Book from October, 1931 through March, 1932. It should not be confused with the 1943 film "Tarzan Triumphs." The plots are not related.
In an unusual twist for a Tarzan story, real-life Soviet dictator Josef Stalin is used as a minor character in the novel, though he remains in Moscow and does not personally take part in the action.
