"The Story of Paul Boyton: Voyages on All the Great Rivers of the World" by Boyton is a fascinating travel narrative written in the late 19th century. The book chronicles the remarkable life of Paul Boyton as he embarks on daring voyages across the world's greatest rivers, covering over 25,000 miles while donning a unique rubber dress designed for water adventures.

At the start of the story, we are introduced to a young Paul Boyton, whose affinity for water leads him on countless escapades along the Allegheny River. Despite his mother’s strict efforts to keep him away from the river, Paul frequently escapes to engage in aquatic adventures, showcasing his daring spirit and resourcefulness. He builds a small boat named "Gray Eagle," where he continues to explore, gather firewood, and even form a small crew of friends with whom he competes in playful battles against rival boys. This opening portion sets the stage for Boyton’s character development and his eventual journey as an adventurer navigating through various terrains and cultures.
