The book is a collection of essays that provide a detailed account of the author's experiences of living in a rural area of France during both times of peace and war. Hamerton's writing is vivid and descriptive, taking readers on a journey through the French countryside, exploring the natural beauty of the landscape and the way of life of the people who inhabit it. He shares his observations on the customs and traditions of the local people, as well as their daily routines, work, and leisure activities.The book also delves into the impact of war on the rural community, with Hamerton recounting his experiences of living through the Franco-Prussian War of 1870-71. He describes the challenges faced by the people, including the disruption of their daily lives, the loss of loved ones, and the destruction of their homes and livelihoods.Overall, Round My House is a fascinating account of rural life in France during the late 19th century, providing a unique insight into the culture, history, and way of life of the people who lived there.
