The opening portion of the collection introduces a range of topics and sets a reflective tone for the essays to follow. It begins with an exploration of New Year traditions, juxtaposing historical customs with the modern festivities of the time. The selection hints at stories about influential figures, such as George Washington and Thomas Jefferson, while emphasizing the human experiences of love and loss intertwined with significant events in history.
