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
Edmund Hodgson Yates was a British journalist, author, and dramatist. He was born in Edinburgh to Frederick Henry Yates, an actor and theater manager, and attended Highgate School in London from 1840 to 1846, then Düsseldorf. His first job was as a clerk at the General Post Office, where he rose to the position of chief of the lost letter department in 1862 and remained there until 1872. Meanwhile, he began working in journalism, first for the Court Journal and subsequently for the Daily News, under Charles Dickens. In 1854 he released his debut book, My Haunts and their Frequenters, followed by a string of novels and plays. In 1858, Yates was appointed editor of Town Talk, a new newspaper. His first issue had a laudatory piece on Dickens, and the second was a critical one on Thackeray, with several intimate references to private things. Thackeray brought the essay before the Garrick Club's committee, claiming that Yates had used it improperly, and as a result, Yates was banished. Yates, in addition to publishing Temple Bar and Tinsley's Magazine, began lecturing on social issues in the 1860s and authored several works, notably the novel Black Sheep (1867). He maintained the type of column he had started in the Illustrated Times in the Morning Star, under the title "Le Flaneur".
