Chosen solution

The Home button is normally in the top right corner, to the left of the ≡ Menu Button (see attached screenshot). If it's missing, right-click an empty area of the tab bar and choose Customize. Drag it from the palette onto a toolbar.

To change what page opens in each new tab,

  1. Type about:config into the address bar and press Enter.
  2. To bypass the warning, press the big button labeled "I'll be careful, I promise!".
  3. In the search box, paste browser.newtab.url
  4. In the search results, double-click browser.newtab.url and set its value to any web page URL you want, or an internal page like about:home

It's on the right-side of the Navigation Bar. You can use the Customize feature and drag the Home button up to the Menu Bar, to the right of Help.
