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.

Readers interested in bulk purchases are invited to contact us directly to enquire about our tailored bulk rates.
Autorenporträt
Henry Jackson van Dyke Jr. was an American novelist, educator, diplomat, and Presbyterian minister. Van Dyke was born November 10, 1852, in Germantown, Pennsylvania. He was the son of Henry Jackson van Dyke Sr. (1822-1891), a famous Brooklyn Presbyterian preacher recognized in the antebellum era for his anti-abolitionist beliefs. The family descended from Jan Thomasse van Dijk, who came from Holland to North America in 1652. The younger Henry van Dyke graduated from Poly Prep Country Day School in 1869, Princeton University in 1873, and Princeton Theological Seminary in 1877. He was a professor of English literature at Princeton from 1899 to 1923. Among the many pupils he impacted was future star travel writer Richard Halliburton (1900-1939), then-Editor-in-Chief of the Princeton Pictorial. Van Dyke oversaw the group that developed the first Presbyterian printed liturgy, The Book of Common Worship, in 1906. Dr. van Dyke served as an instructor at the University of Paris from 1908 to 2009. In 1913, President Woodrow Wilson appointed van Dyke, a friend and old classmate, as Minister to the Netherlands and Luxembourg. World War I erupted shortly after his appointment, devastating Europe. Americans from all over Europe came to Holland seeking shelter.
