It follows the adventures of Tarzan, a white man raised by apes in the African jungle, as he navigates conflicts with both the natural world and human intruders. The story blends elements of adventure, survival, and the exploration of identity against the backdrop of the wild. The opening of the book introduces the character of Tantor, the elephant, who is depicted as a majestic and powerful figure in the jungle, living in harmony with the other creatures except for man, whom he views with caution. This peaceful existence is disrupted when Tarzan is unintentionally knocked unconscious after an encounter involving hunters. As Tarzan regains consciousness, he finds himself captured by a group of Arabic raiders, led by Sheik Ibn Jad, who are after ivory and slaves. The scene sets up a tense confrontation as Tarzan's identity as the "Lord of the Jungle" becomes known to his captors, foreshadowing conflicts that will arise between man and beast as well as between Tarzan and those who seek to exploit the jungle.
