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
Daniel Pierce Thompson, an American author and lawyer who served as Vermont Secretary of State, was New England's most well-known novelist before Nathaniel Hawthorne. Daniel P. Thompson was born in Charlestown, Massachusetts on October 1, 1795, and relocated to Vermont with his family around 1800. He grew up in Berlin, Vermont, and graduated from Middlebury College in 1820. He subsequently relocated to Virginia, where he taught school, studied law, and was admitted to the bar before returning to Vermont to work as an attorney in Montpelier. Thompson served as the Washington County Register of Probate from 1825 to 1830, as well as the Vermont House of Representatives' Engrossing Clerk from 1830 to 1833 and 1834 to 1836. Thompson was prominent in the Democratic Party before switching to the Liberty Party and became interested in the abolitionist cause. From 1849 to 1856, he was the editor of the anti-slavery newspaper Green Mountain Freeman. He served as Washington County Probate Judge from 1837 to 1840, then again from 1841 to 1842, and authored Vermont's Laws of 1835. In 1838, he founded the Vermont Historical Society. He was Washington County Clerk from 1844 until 1846. From 1853 to 1855, he was Vermont's Secretary of State.
