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 The Universal Dictation Course of Dement's Testimony Shorthand: Made Up of Business Letters From Twenty-Six Different Businesses, Together With Legal Papers, Depositions, and Testimony From Civil and Criminal Cases The text-book of this system is a complete instructor as far as the principles of the system are concerned. It is not intended that this book shall take the place of the text-book, but that it shall be used as an auxiliary to the text-book. It is designed to follow the text-book, as a graded, classified, Dictation Course, for which there has always been a demand. Throughout the Dictation Course the student is recommended to make free 13 use of the text-book, by frequent reference to it, in all cases in which an outline is not understood, or a principle is forgotten. It is intended for all grades of writers, but especially, to take the student at the very beginning of dictation and lead him, in a most systematic manner, through a carefully graded course, from the easiest, ordinary business letters, to the most difficult matter. The course should be practised and written through repeatedly, occasionally reviewing work passed over, and speed and accuracy will result. It will be of great advantage to the instructors, students and writers of the 3 system, for systematic study and practise, in systematically planning the work in the schoolroom and classifying the school, for special preparation in any particular$ line of business, for gaining speed and at the same time keeping the notes in good form, and as a book of reference.
