Tarzan Books

For every copy of Tarzan: The Greystoke Legacy sold the EAZA Ape Campaign will receive a donation from the author, Andy Briggs, who has generously agreed to donate a portion of his author’s royalties to the campaign fund.

We will add further information about foreign language publishers of the book when it is available.

Ordering the English edition (published June 2011)

For copies of the English language edition published by Faber & Faber, an additional 10p (British sterling) will be donated to the campaign fund.

The publisher’s information sheet provides more background about the book.

Zoos can order copies of the English language edition of the book from the distributor TBS. A 50% trade discount will be taken off for the Tarzan book (the standard trade discount is 35%). Zoos that already have an account with TBS will have the 50% discount automatically applied for the Tarzan book.

The easiest ways to order from TBS are via email sales@tbs-ltd.co.uk or by phone +44 1206 255 678.

Those who don’t yet have an account set up at TBS can do either of the following:

  • Set up an account by filling in this form. If you have any questions about the form you can call TBS Credit Services on +44 1206 256 000. You can email the completed form back to creditservices@tbs-ltd.co.uk or fax it to +44 1206 256 051
  • Alternatively you can pay for the books via credit/debit card using TBS Cash Sales Service – 01206 255 777.

If you decide to open an account, please contact Clare Yates at Faber & Faber so that she can give you the extra discount on this title: (Email: ClareY@faber.co.uk; direct telephone: +44 207 927 3861)

All books can be on a “sale or return” basis but books paid for by credit/debit cards will need authorisation first from Faber & Faber. TBS pay for postage out but the individual zoo is responsible for paying the postage back to TBS for any returns.
