The opening of the autobiography details Richardson's reflections on the nature of imagination and inspiration, contrasting materialism with spirituality. He shares anecdotes about his ancestors, beginning with Ezekiel Richardson's arrival in Massachusetts in the 17th century, describing their struggles and achievements. Early chapters set the tone for a memoir steeped in personal history, blending familial legacy with Richardson's own life experiences, particularly those involving the significant figures in his life and the historical context of the time.
