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

George Cary Eggleston was an American writer, best known for his works depicting American life in the post-Civil War era. Born on November 26, 1839, in Indiana, he was the son of Joseph Cary Eggleston and Mary Jane Craig. He was the brother of fellow writer Edward Eggleston. George's literary career began after the Civil War, when he gained attention for a serialized account of his experiences as a Confederate soldier, published in The Atlantic Monthly. This work marked the beginning of his exploration of historical and regional themes in his writing. Throughout his career, he contributed significantly to American literature, particularly in the genres of historical fiction and adventure. Eggleston's writing reflected the complexities and challenges of the time, and his narratives often included rich character development and vivid depictions of the American South. His works remain a valuable reflection of his era, capturing the social and cultural shifts of the late 19th century. George Cary Eggleston passed away on April 14, 1911, in New York at the age of 71.
