| Sommario/riassunto: | Born in Iowa, Emerson Hough moved to a frontier town in New Mexico to practice law after finishing his schooling. Over time, his focus shifted to journalism and eventually to fiction. Like many of his novels, The Girl at the Halfway House skillfully combines romance, battlefield action, and an enduring appreciation for America's wide open spaces. |
