Summary "His Grace of Osmonde" by Frances Hodgson Burnett is a historical novel set in the late 19th century. The story dives into the lives of the nobles, particularly focusing on the birth of the heir to the Duke of Osmonde amid the expectations and anxieties of those around him. Following the illustrious line of a noble estate, the narrative hints at themes of love, duty, and the responsibilities of nobility. The opening of the novel paints a vivid picture of the serene village of Camylott as its inhabitants share in a collective anticipation surrounding the Duchess's delivery. The women gossip about the fortune the newborn will inherit, while the men celebrate over ale, eagerly waiting for news. Entering the intimate moment of the birth, the Duke and Duchess reveal their love and joy as they welcome their son, whom they hope will embody the virtues of his lineage. The chapter establishes a tone of warmth and affection, setting the stage for the unfolding story of the Marquess of Roxholm, the young heir, as he grows amidst the backdrop of both familial love and societal expectations.
