C. McClurg \u0026amp; Co., shifts the focus of his famous wilderness mythos to a new generation.\u003c\/span\u003e The plot follows Jack Clayton, the young son of Tarzan (John Clayton, Lord Greystoke) and Jane Porter, who is fiercely shielded by his parents from the dangerous allure of the African wild. However, Tarzan's old, mutilated nemesis Alexis Paulvitch seeks revenge by luring Jack away from London, only for the boy to escape into the deep African jungle with the assistance of his father's former ape companion, Akut. Stripped of civilization, Jack embraces his primitive heritage, rapidly earning the terrifying mantle of \"Korak the Killer\" among the great apes. The narrative reaches its climax when Korak rescues Meriem, an abducted French heiress held captive by Arab raiders, setting off a thrilling saga of survival, romance, and an eventual, triumphant reunion with his parents.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"n6owBd awi2gc\" data-sfc-cp=\"\" data-sfc-root=\"c\" data-sfc-cb=\"\" data-hveid=\"CAAICBAA\" data-complete=\"true\" data-processed=\"true\" data-copy-service-computed-style='font-family: \"Google Sans\", \"Helvetica Neue\", sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-weight: 400; margin: 12px 0px 16px; text-decoration: none; border-bottom: 0px rgb(10, 10, 10);'\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"n6owBd awi2gc\" data-sfc-cp=\"\" data-sfc-root=\"c\" data-sfc-cb=\"\" data-hveid=\"CAAICxAA\" data-complete=\"true\" data-processed=\"true\" aria-owns=\"action-menu-parent-container\" data-copy-service-computed-style='font-family: \"Google Sans\", \"Helvetica Neue\", sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-weight: 400; margin: 12px 0px 16px; text-decoration: none; border-bottom: 0px rgb(10, 10, 10);'\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"Yjhzub\"\u003eThe author, Edgar Rice Burroughs (1875–1950), wrote this fourth installment of the Tarzan saga during a period of immense personal creative output and growing commercial dominance.\u003c\/span\u003e Born in Chicago, Burroughs tried his hand at numerous unsuccessful business ventures—including gold mining, railroading, and selling pencil sharpeners—before turning to writing out of sheer economic desperation at age 35.
