Synopsis
Cruise Of The Ringleader by James Inwards. Cruise Of The Ringleader is a first-person travelogue recounting a solitary canoe voyage through the Scottish Highlands and lochs in the late 19th century. Beginning in Inverness, the narrator chooses canoeing over traditional rail or coach travel to experience Scotland’s sublime scenery at a deliberate pace. The route unfolds along Loch Ness, the Caledonian Canal, Loch Oich, Loch Lochy, Fort Augustus, Loch Eil, Loch Linnhe, Loch Etive, and on to Loch Lomond, Loch Katrine, and the Trossachs, with detours to Foyers Falls, Urquhart Castle, Ballachulish, and Ardentinny. The text blends vivid natural description with episodes of storms, peril, and improvisation—camping in a cave at Obriachan, sharing bread with Highland locals, and meeting fishermen, shepherds, and innkeepers. The tone balances boyish enthusiasm and wry humor as the author describes the canoe’s performance, the hazardous yet exhilarating power of Atlantic rollers, and the intimate beauty of Scotland’s water-and-rock landscapes.
