| Summary | "The Rivers of Great Britain, Descriptive, Historical, Pictorial: Rivers of the East Coast" is a detailed and illustrated geographical account written in the late 19th century. This comprehensive work delves into the history, legends, and scenic beauty of various British rivers, primarily focusing on their significance in the landscape and culture of Scotland. The opening portion of the book introduces the Highland Dee, exploring its source in the Cairngorm Mountains and describing its picturesque yet formidable surroundings. The narrative highlights notable features, such as the mystical allure of the surrounding peaks and the history of key events associated with the river, including legends and impacts from floods. The author paints a vivid picture of both the natural and historical elements that characterize the Dee, sharing tales of early encounters with the Scottish landscape and its influence on poets like Lord Byron, setting the stage for an engaging exploration of Scotland's rivers.
