The book nostalgically recounts the traditions, customs, and experiences from the perspective of Etonians, reflecting on the unique position the college holds in the landscape of English education and heritage. It explores how the bonds formed at this illustrious institution leave a profound impact on its alumni, influencing their lives and careers. The opening of the work sets the tone by emphasizing Eton's rich history and its esteemed legacy, detailing the school's picturesque surroundings and unique customs. Nevill discusses the sentiments of old boys who regard their time at Eton not just as an educational experience but as a period of deep personal significance. The author introduces anecdotes that underline the school's traditions, such as the early days of Eton founded by Henry VI, ancient customs that have changed over time, and the powerful sense of nostalgia that envelops Etonians when they reflect on their formative years at the college.
