http://www.pgdpcanada.net  a"North of 36" by Emerson Hough is a historical novel written in the early 20th century. The story is set in post-Civil War Texas and centers around Taisie Lockhart, a young heiress struggling to maintain her family’s vast ranch, Laguna del Sol. Faced with financial ruin and the challenges of a lawless land, Taisie navigates her way through personal and professional tumult, garnering the fierce loyalty of her cowhands while contending with the realities of the cattle industry.  The opening of the book introduces Taisie as she braces herself to deliver the devastating news to her loyal ranch hands that their services can no longer be afforded. This moment foreshadows the challenges to come, revealing Taisie’s emotional burden as an orphaned heiress amidst a backdrop of poverty and desperation in a transitioning Texas landscape. In her conversation with Jim Nabours, the foreman, their dialogue highlights the complex relationship between them while emphasizing local sentiments concerning the cattle trade and rumors of a market north that could represent both opportunity and danger. This sets the stage for Taisie's determination to take risks to revitalise her ranch and seek justice for her father’s untimely death, promising an engaging narrative filled with adventure and personal growth.
