Produktbeschreibung
The magnificent adventure being the story of the world s greatest exploration and the romance of a very gallant gentleman: A novel follows a journey of exploration, ambition, and personal reflection, centering on an individual whose destiny is tied to discovery. The story captures the pull between duty and personal longing, as a strong maternal figure recognizes her son's restless spirit and the path he is destined to follow. His deep sense of purpose is shaped by both external challenges and the emotional connections that define his world. As he navigates the uncertainties of uncharted territory, he must also confront inner struggles that test his resilience and understanding of his own nature. The novel blends historical exploration with introspective moments, highlighting the emotional cost of pursuing greatness. It explores the weight of expectations, the sacrifices made in the name of discovery, and the bonds that endure despite distance and hardship. The landscape of the narrative is as much an external frontier as an internal reckoning, emphasizing the dual journey of self-discovery and ambition.
Autorenporträt
American writer Emerson Hough (1857 1923) was well-known for his large body of historical writing, essays, and novels, especially in the western fiction genre. Hough, who was born in Newton, Iowa, on June 28, 1857, was greatly impacted by the American West's scenery and people. He briefly practiced law after earning his law degree from the University of Iowa in 1880 before deciding to become a writer. Hough's early western-themed writings, such as "The Story of the Cowboy" (1897), launched his literary career and solidified his status as a western fiction author. His books "The Mississippi Bubble" (1902) and "The Covered Wagon" (1922), the latter of which was made into a popular silent film, won him significant praise. Hough wrote on the spirit of exploration, adventure, and hardy individuality of the American frontier throughout his life. His writings contributed to the romanticization of the West in American literature by frequently capturing the struggles and victories of settlers, cowboys, and pioneers.
