Lyman delves into the early stages of settlement, the native races of the region, and significant historical events, painting a vivid picture of the area's development and natural beauty. The opening of the book provides a detailed examination of the physical and geological features of Walla Walla County. Lyman describes the region as a land of scenic charm, highlighting its fertile soils, climate, and natural waterways, including the Columbia and Snake Rivers.
