| Summary | "The Gorilla Hunters" by R. M. Ballantyne is a novel written in the late 19th century. The book narrates the adventures of Ralph Rover, a naturalist, and his friends as they embark on a thrilling hunting expedition to Africa in search of the elusive gorilla. The opening chapters introduce the main characters, including the exuberant Peterkin Gay, who proposes the hunting trip, and Jack Martin, who adds to the camaraderie as they reunite and recall their past escapades on a coral island. At the start of the tale, we find Ralph Rover reflecting on his past when an unexpected visit from his old companion, Peterkin, reignites the spirit of adventure in him. Peterkin reveals his intent to hunt the legendary gorilla and convinces Ralph to join him, along with their mutual friend Jack who they plan to track down. The narrative describes their lively interactions, the excitement of planning their journey, and hints at their upcoming adventures in the African wilderness, setting the stage for tales of discovery, peril, and the colorful characters they will encounter along the way.
