The opening of the book introduces the reader to the author's reminiscences related to maple sugar production, a cherished tradition among the Ottawa Indians, as well as white settlers. It evokes a vivid sense of nostalgia, beginning with the author's childhood memories of visiting an Indian camp and experiencing the sweetness of maple sugar.
