| Summary | "The Wolf Hunters: A Story of the Buffalo Plains" by Robert Morris Peck is a historical novel likely written in the early 20th century. The book chronicles the adventures of three former soldiers – Robert Peck, Tom Vance, and Jack Flanagan – as they embark on a winter expedition to hunt wolves and collect buffalo pelts for profit in the buffalo range of Kansas during the Civil War. The narrative provides insight into the challenges and dangers of frontier life, particularly the threat posed by both nature and hostile characters. At the start of the book, the three ex-soldiers, recently discharged from military service, ponder their next steps. Tom proposes a plan to hunt wolves in the buffalo range, which excites his companions. He outlines a meticulous strategy for gathering the necessary supplies and forming a camp in the heart of the buffalo range. The opening chapters establish their camaraderie, resolve to work together, and highlight the backdrop of a rugged, often perilous landscape filled with the potential for both adventure and conflict, foreshadowing the encounters they are likely to face during their journey.
