The opening of the book outlines Abbott's intentions and preparations for this historical narrative. He describes his travels to Paris to gather firsthand accounts of the revolution and the philosophical writings that preceded it. Abbott discusses the biases inherent in historical storytelling, highlighting that the view of the revolution's events can differ drastically based on the observer's political principles.
