Explore "Tarzan of the Apes" by Edgar Rice Burroughs on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
In the forest of the tableland a mile back from the ocean old Kerchak the Ape was on a rampage of rage among his people.
The younger and lighter members of his tribe scampered to the higher branches of the great trees to escape his wrath; risking their lives upon branches that scarce supported their weight rather than face old Kerchak in one of his fits of uncontrolled anger.
