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

Charles Dudley Warner was an American author and friend of Mark Twain. He was born September 12, 1829, and died October 20, 1900. Warner wrote essays and novels and co-wrote The Gilded Age: A Tale of Today with Twain. Warner was raised by Puritans and was born in Plainfield, Massachusetts. He lived in Charlemont, Massachusetts, from the age of six to fourteen. He wrote about this time and place in his book Being a Boy (1877). Following that, he went to Cazenovia, New York. In 1851, he graduated from Hamilton College in Clinton, New York. He worked as a surveyor in Missouri and then went to the University of Pennsylvania to study law. From 1856 to 1860, he worked as a lawyer in Chicago. In 1860, he went to Connecticut to become an assistant editor at The Hartford Press. He became editor of the paper in 1861 and stayed in that job until 1867, when it joined with another paper to become The Hartford Courant. At that time, he became co-editor with Joseph R. Hawley. As of 1892, he was in charge of The Editor's Study at Harper's Magazine, where he had been in charge of The Editor's Drawer since 1884.
