Munro aims to provide a synthesized understanding of lake-dwellings, particularly for readers interested in archaeology and history. At the start of the book, the author reflects on his surprise when appointed to deliver the Rhind lectureship in Archaeology for 1888, which specifically compelled him to address the topic of lake-dwellings. He outlines his initial lack of knowledge about the subject beyond Scotland, recounts the challenges of gathering materials from various European sites, and describes his travels through central Europe to compile findings. Munro emphasizes the recent advancements in lake-dwelling research, highlighting numerous discoveries and the complexity of piecing together archaeological evidence from scattered findings across different museums and locations.
