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 Record of the Smith Family Descended From John Smith, Born 1655 in County Monaghan, Ireland The family of Robert is the best known of all the children of John Smith, and they have been traced up most completely; and the family of Mary have been the next most carefully traced, though they have scattered through the Southwest, and more of them, perchance, are missing. The net result is that we have a pretty full history of these two children's descendants, and the rest are fragmentary and partial, James' descendants being but few, and Sarah's but innumerous, though they, too, are scattered, and have not all been found. The record may be said to be fairly full down to the XIX Generation, the births in which ran from XIX 12, born in 1807 to XIX 248, born in 1866, being mostly born from 1820 to 1860. These are now all people of adult years, and were ready to give some details about themselves; but after that time dates of birth became more difficult to secure, and had to be omitted in many cases. After that Generation the details are more meagre, many persons who were ap plied to failing to give what was necessary, and some showing unwillingness to contribute much information. The net result that has been achieved is to link the present Smith family to the earliest records now known, and to trace a number of them so far down that each can take it up for himself, if he wishes to continue the search further.
