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.

David Forsyth recounts the life of Eben Smith, an integral but little-known figure in Colorado mining history. Smith was one of the many fortune seekers who traveled to California during the gold rush and one of the few who found what he sought. He moved to Colorado in 1860 with business partner Jerome Chaffee and over the next forty-six years was involved in mining in nearly every major camp in the state, from Central City to Cripple Creek, and in the development of mines such as the Bobtail, Little Jonny, and Victor. He was eulogized by the Denver Post and Denver Times as the “dean of mining in Colorado.” The mining teams Smith formed with Chaffee and with industrialist David Moffat were among the most successful and respected in Colorado, and many in the state held Smith in high regard. Yet despite the credit he received during his lifetime for establishing Colorado’s mining industry, Smith has not received much attention from historians, perhaps because he was content to leave public-facing duties to his partners while he concerned himself with managing mine operations. From Smith’s early years and his labor in the mines to his rise to prominence as an investor and developer, Forsyth shows how Smith used the mining and milling knowledge he acquired in California to become a leader in technological innovation in Colorado’s mining industry.

Jasper Smith of Maidenhead, New Jersey, was the son of John Smith of Bedford, New York, and many of Jasper's descendants are contained in this book. The earlier records are taken from the New Jersey genealogies "Smith families of Bedford, NY and Maidenhead, NJ." Later records were researched by various members of the Smith families in census records, county records, wills, cemetery records, Bibles and personal family records. Some members of this family moved into central New York State about 1800. From there many of them migrated to Pennsylvania, Michigan and further west. Of course, some of them were very difficult to find and some were never found. The authors have tried very hard to include as many of the descendants as possible. Entries span eleven generations, from number 1, John Smith (ca.1650-1694) to number 1099, Randall Joseph Stephens (born 1970). Entries typically provide: full name, date and place of birth, date and place of death, names of parents, date of marriage, name of spouse, names of spouse's parents, names of children (most provide date of birth), and place of burial. A full-name index completes this work.
