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

Alice Hegan Rice, also known as Alice Caldwell Hegan, was a notable American novelist born on January 11, 1870, in Shelbyville, Kentucky, and passed away on February 10, 1942. A native of Louisville, Kentucky, she gained most of her acclaim from her 1901 novel 'Mrs. Wiggs of the Cabbage Patch,' which was an immediate bestseller and later adapted into plays and films. Her writing style often incorporated humor and pathos, depicting the lives of the underprivileged with both sympathy and levity. Another significant work from her collection is 'Lovey Mary,' published in 1903, which continued the themes of compassion and resilience that were present in her previous works. This novel focuses on a young orphan girl's efforts to protect an abandoned child, further underscoring Rice's recurrent theme of survival amidst adversity. Her literary contributions were characterized by their accessible narratives and engaging characters that resonated with a broad audience. Rice's impact on early 20th-century literature is still recognized today, and her works remain a testament to her literary skills and her deep humanistic concerns. Overall, she authored more than twenty novels, contributing richly to the American literary canon.
