At the start of the book, Cook introduces Liverpool as the primary entry point for American tourists arriving in England, detailing its history and significance as a major port city. He vividly describes the picturesque scenery the traveler encounters as they navigate through the docks and explore the rich heritage reflected in the architecture and surroundings, such as Knowsley Hall and the ancient city of Chester. The introduction sets the stage for the book's eight planned tours through England and Wales, highlighting the country's unique blend of natural beauty and deep historical roots, preparing readers for a comprehensive exploration of its renowned landscapes and landmarks.
