Edgar Rice Burroughs was fond of using the phrase, "the thin veneer of civilization" to describe mankind's condition in relation to his more fundamental savage makeup. The phrase appears most commonly in his Tarzan books, although it does not appear until the second one in the series, The Return of Tarzan, which he wrote in 1912.
