The opening of the book sets the stage by discussing the early educational landscape of England, focusing on the rise of learning centers like York and the development of Cambridge as a university town. It notes the influence of notable figures like Bede and Alcuin, as well as the role of the river and the town in shaping Cambridge's history.
