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
Thomas Nelson Page was an American attorney, politician, and writer. During World War I, he was the United States' ambassador to Italy from 1913 to 1919, serving under President Woodrow Wilson. Page's writing popularized Plantation tradition literature, which was utilized to spread the Lost Cause idea throughout the New South. Page originally captured the public's notice with his story "Marse Chan," which appeared in the Century Illustrated Monthly magazine. Page's most notable pieces are The Burial of the Guns and In Ole Virginia. Page was born on one of the Nelson family's properties in Oakland, near the community of Beaverdam, Hanover County, Virginia. He was the son of John Page (a lawyer and plantation owner) and Elizabeth Burwell (Nelson). He descended from the well-known Nelson and Page families, both of whom were First Families of Virginia. Although he came from an affluent family, during the American Civil War, which began when he was eight years old, his parents and relatives were largely poor during Reconstruction and his adolescence. In 1869, he enrolled in Washington College, now known as Washington and Lee University, in Lexington, Virginia, where Robert E. Lee was president.
