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

Elizabeth Porter Gould (1848-1906) was an American author, poet, and lecturer with a keen interest in history and literature. Her book 'Stray Pebbles from the Shores of Thought' reflects her diverse interests and literary talent. Published in 1892, the book is a collection of aphorisms, reflections, and short essays that delve into philosophical musings, showcasing her affinity for introspection and her contemplative nature. Gould's prose is often characterized by its lyrical quality and its exploration of the human condition. She drew inspiration from her surroundings and the rich tapestry of American culture during the late 19th century. Gould's contribution to American literature is noted for its intellectual depth and its nuanced exploration of themes like nature, spirituality, and personal growth. Though not as widely known as some of her contemporaries, her work has been appreciated for its thoughtfulness and its insight into the zeitgeist of her era. The stylistic elegance and earnest engagement with universal questions of life and purpose characterize Gould's literary voice, making her a distinctive figure among American writers of her time.
