The opening of the work serves as a preface, where Myers outlines the framework of the narrative and acknowledges the sources that informed his writing. He stresses the importance of verifying historical facts and offers insight into the primary sections dedicated to ancient history, which include early civilizations such as India, China, Egypt, and Mesopotamia (Chaldæa and Assyria).
