Autoren-Porträt von Emerson Hough
Emerson Hough (1857-1923) was a preeminent American author known for his historical novels and stories that melded meticulous research with a vivid narrative style. Born in Newton, Iowa, Hough graduated from the State University of Iowa and later studied law, passing the bar in 1882. His passion for writing and storytelling, however, drew him away from legal practice and towards a literary career filled with adventure and the pioneering spirit of the American West. His works frequently illuminated themes central to the Westward expansion, capturing the trials and tribulations of frontiersmen and the complexities of the American frontier with great nuance and detail. One of his pivotal works, '54-40 or Fight,' exemplifies his narrative prowess, placing readers at the heart of the dispute between Britain and America over the Pacific Northwest in the mid-19th century. This historical novel, like much of his writing, has been celebrated for its authentic embodiment of historical events and characters, engaging readers in the political intricacies and human experiences of the time. Beyond just chronicling events, Hough's literary style was characterized by a blend of realism and romanticism, making his accounts both educational and entertaining. His contribution to American literature, particularly in the Western genre, continues to be noted for its influence on the portrayal of American history and its formative moments.
