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.

Thomas Williams, headmaster of Cowbridge Grammar School, and entered Trinity College, Cambridge, in 1820. He graduated with a B.A. in 1825 and an M.A. in 1828. He is likely the "Malkin" who was chosen to the Cambridge Apostles in 1826. In 1829, Angier March Perkins and James Philip Roy disbanded their civil engineering partnership. He bought an estate in Corrybrough, Tomatin, Inverness-shire, where he became Deputy Lieutenant, and also lived at 21 Wimpole Street in London. Malkin played for Cambridge University Cricket Club and appeared in one first-class games in 1826, scoring 11 runs with a maximum score of 11 not out and taking no catches. In 1827, he was part of a rowing crew that traveled from Cambridge to King's Lynn and then over The Wash to Boston, Lincolnshire. The crew also included Kenelm Digby and John Mitchell Kemble.
