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.

Excerpt from Papers and Proceedings of the Thirty-Ninth Annual Meeting of the American Library Association, Held at Louisville, Ky., June 21-27, 1917 But in 1848 you find yourself confronting a sinister power that said democracy was going too far, a power that forced out Carl Schurz and those other men who did so much for democracy in the United States, a power which imprisoned and prosecuted in 1848 and which still imprisons, hangs and mutilates today in the name of those who hate democracy. In 1848 we see this struggle intensifying. After the end of the wars of Napoleon, in 1815, that amazing Congress of Vienna was summoned, to divide up the world, in a way I suppose highwaymen would divide up loot. They carved and recombined Europe in the interest of Austria, Prussia, Russia and Great Britain; and France and French possessions were the victims. You will, perhaps, recall that when the Repub lic of Genoa had been tossed over to some king, the representatives of the republic complained to the czar, who was one of the most sentimental, beautiful souls that ever played the part of an iron-handed, bloody despot. The czar replied, Repub lies are no longer fashionable. One, hun dred and two years after that remark Rus sia said to the czar, Czars are no longer fashionable. The difference between those two fashions is the difference which meas ures the development of American ideals in the spread of democracy throughout the world. This autocratic power which, in 1815, was so firmly intrenched in Europe has gone down in a way that is hard to believe.
