Produktbeschreibung
Trieste Publishing has a massive catalogue of classic book titles. Our aim is to provide readers with the highest quality reproductions of fiction and non-fiction literature that has stood the test of time. The many thousands of books in our collection have been sourced from libraries and private collections around the world.The titles that Trieste Publishing has chosen to be part of the collection have been scanned to simulate the original. Our readers see the books the same way that their first readers did decades or a hundred or more years ago. Books from that period are often spoiled by imperfections that did not exist in the original. Imperfections could be in the form of blurred text, photographs, or missing pages. It is highly unlikely that this would occur with one of our books. Our extensive quality control ensures that the readers of Trieste Publishing's books will be delighted with their purchase. Our staff has thoroughly reviewed every page of all the books in the collection, repairing, or if necessary, rejecting titles that are not of the highest quality. This process ensures that the reader of one of Trieste Publishing's titles receives a volume that faithfully reproduces the original, and to the maximum degree possible, gives them the experience of owning the original work.We pride ourselves on not only creating a pathway to an extensive reservoir of books of the finest quality, but also providing value to every one of our readers. Generally, Trieste books are purchased singly - on demand, however they may also be purchased in bulk. Readers interested in bulk purchases are invited to contact us directly to enquire about our tailored bulk rates.
Autorenporträt
Bret Harte was an American poet and short story writer who was born on August 25, 1836 and died on May 5, 1902. He is best known for his short stories about miners, gamblers, and other romantic figures from the California Gold Rush. In a career that lasted more than 40 years, he also wrote poems, plays, lectures, editorials, reviews of books, and sketches for magazines. As he moved from California to the east coast and then to Europe, he added new settings and people to his stories, but his Gold Rush stories are the ones that have been reprinted, changed, and praised the most. When he got back to San Francisco, he got married and started writing for the Golden Era. They released the first of his Condensed Novels, which were brilliant parodies of works by James Fenimore Cooper, Charles Dickens, Victor Hugo, and others. He then got a job as a clerk at the U.S. branch mint, which gave him the freedom to be the editor of the Californian. He hired Mark Twain to write weekly pieces for the paper.
