House and Home Papers, written by Harriet Beecher Stowe and published in 1865 under the pseudonym Christopher Crowfield, is a collection of essays reflecting on domestic life and home-making. Stowe contrasts true home-keeping with mere house-keeping, emphasizing the importance of love and warmth in creating a nurturing environment. The essays address societal observations and personal experiences, notably highlighting the impact of consumerism on the Northern middle class during the Civil War era. Key essays include 'The Ravages of a Carpet' and 'What is a Home?'.
