| Summary | "The Cruise of The Violetta" by Arthur Colton is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around Christopher "Kit" Kirby, who falls ill in South America and encounters the intriguing Dr. Ulswater during his recovery in the Bahamas. The book sets sail into an exploration of tropical regions, characters, and the adventures that unfold as they encounter various situations, including the enigmatic Mrs. Mink, who owns the yacht "Violetta," and aims to engage in missionary work. At the start of the narrative, Kit Kirby describes his troublesome journey through illness and how he comes under the care of Dr. Ulswater, a well-traveled and unconventional physician. As Kit recovers, he forms a bond with Dr. Ulswater while exploring the vibrant marine life of Nassau. The introduction of Mrs. Mink aboard the yacht brings a domestic twist amid the tropical backdrop, as she reveals her motivations for engaging in foreign missions. Together, they embark on a cruise filled with lively discussions and unexpected encounters, including a diplomatic crisis involving revolutionary figures and whimsical situations, setting the stage for an adventurous exploration of character dynamics and cultural observations.
