Produktbeschreibung

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.

Autorenporträt

Maurice Baring OBE was an English man of letters who worked as a dramatist, poet, novelist, translator, and essayist, as well as a travel writer and war correspondent with a focus on Russia. During World War I, Baring worked for the Intelligence Corps and the Royal Air Force. Baring was the eighth child and fifth son of Edward Charles Baring, first Baron Revelstoke, of the Baring banking dynasty, and his wife Louisa Emily Charlotte Bulteel, second Earl Grey's granddaughter. Born in Mayfair, he attended Eton College and Trinity College, Cambridge. After a failed diplomatic career, he traveled extensively, mainly in Russia, where he lived in 1905-2006. At the outbreak of World War I, he joined the Royal Flying Corps and worked as an assistant to David Henderson and Hugh Trenchard in France. Throughout the war, he wrote with Lady Juliet Duff, the widow of Sir Robin Duff, 2nd Baronet of Vaynol, who was killed on October 16, 1914, near Oostnieuwekirke while fighting in the 2nd Life Guards. The letters were ultimately published under the title Dear Animated Bust: Letters to Lady Juliet Duff.
