Men’s adventure magazines of the 1950s and 1960s were a lurid form of pulp publishing which specialised in stories of cruelty and savagery, often in exotic settings. The jungles of Africa, South America and Asia, or remote tropical islands, often formed the background for tales of attacks by man-eating animals, cannibals and headhunters, voodoo worshippers, sex-crazed Amazons or Mau-Mau rebels threatening torture, decapitation and rape for the white male and female victims unfortunate enough to fall prey to such primitive perils of the unknown. This special ebook presentation of men’s adventure culture includes full-colour reproductions of 40 vintage magazine covers depicting scenes of jungle horror.
