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
Mary Hartwell Catherwood was born to Marcus Hartwell and Pheba Thompson and became known as an American author focused on historical romances, short stories, and poetry. Raised in Ohio and later Illinois, she lost her parents young and was brought up by her maternal grandfather. At thirteen she earned a teacher s certificate and began teaching locally before enrolling at Granville Female College, completing her course in three years. After teaching and an early writing stint in Cincinnati, she married James Steele Catherwood, with whom she had a daughter, Hazel. They lived mainly in Hoopeston, Illinois, where her growing reputation led to the founding of a literary club in her honor. Her interest expanded to French colonial North America, and historian Francis Parkman praised her meticulous historical accuracy. She was part of the Western Association of Writers and supported fellow authors like James Whitcomb Riley. Near the end of her life, her novel Lazarre was adapted for the stage. She died in Chicago, remembered for enriching American historical fiction with authenticity and vivid local color.
