John Carter, a Confederate veteran of the Civil War, searches for gold and finds something he never imagined. When he strikes a rich vein of gold, the local Apaches turn against him. In his attempt to evade pursuit, Carter hides in a sacred cave and is transported to Mars. On this new world, Carter has great strength and nearly superhuman agility. More than that, he joins the Tharks, a nomadic tribe of Green Martians. Thanks to his strength and combat abilities, Carter becomes a valued member of the tribe. The Tharks capture Dejah Thoris, the Princess of Helium, and a member of the humanoid red Martians. The red Martians control a loose network of city-states as well as the planet’s canals and agriculture. After Carter rescues Dejah Thoris, he becomes determined to return her to her people. In time, it becomes clear that Carter must lead a horde of Tharks. This victory or defeat will determine the fate of Dejah Thoris as well as the whole of Mars itself.
