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
William Dana Orcutt was an American book designer, typeface designer, historian, and author, born on April 18, 1870, in West Lebanon, New Hampshire. He was a key figure in the development of the American book design industry during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Orcutt worked for several prestigious publishing companies and was known for his skill in typeface design, creating fonts that were widely adopted for their aesthetic appeal and readability. In addition to his work in design, he was an accomplished historian, with a particular focus on the history of printing and the role of books in society. Orcutt's contributions to the field of book design were significant, and he is remembered for his innovative approaches to typography and book layout. He was also a writer and authored several works, including fiction. Orcutt married twice, first to Alice Dorothy Wilson, who passed away in 1894, and later to Louise Thompson, with whom he had children, Philip Dana Orcutt and Reginald Orcutt. He passed away on November 28, 1953, in Boston, Massachusetts, at the age of 83.
