Summary: "White Wings: A Yachting Romance, Volume I" by William Black is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around a group of characters embarking on a yachting trip, led by the Laird of Denny-mains, and introduces central figures such as Mary Avon, who is navigating her own emotional landscape while entwined with the other passengers.

The beginning of the narrative sets the stage on a quay with a crowd eagerly anticipating the arrival of a steamer carrying a special guest, Mary Avon, who has just finished caring for a sick relative in Edinburgh. As we are introduced to the Laird and his entourage, their thoughts and conversations reveal expectations about Mary, who is described as charming yet physically fragile. Their growing excitement soon transforms into a heartfelt reception as they eagerly welcome her despite some initial surprise at her appearance.
