Browne tells the history of the East Riding from the ground up: how its chalk wolds and coast were formed, the men of the Stone, Bronze and Iron Ages, the coming of the English, their conversion, the Northmen, the battles of 1066, and the Normans. Later chapters explain how parish churches were built and what a medieval fair offered.
