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.

From the Puddle to the Pond takes the reader on a profound journey spanning two countries-his native country, the Bahamas, and the United States of America. This deeply philosophical and spiritual journey is a candid look at everything from love and family to religion and relationships.

Not knowing what to say, he stood before the mysterious centuries-old captor, images of how they'd gotten themselves into this predicament running quickly through his mind. The sweltering, exhausting hike to see the blue hole, the thrill of seeing it for the first time, and the coolness of the water when they had rushed in, splashing and playing a game of hide and seek. Had it only been a few hours? It seemed like days had passed since they'd willfully ignored their parents' dire warnings in a search of summer adventure. A loud clattering shook him from his thoughts. The chief stood before him, and he contemplated his next words-knowing very well they could be his last.Set in beautiful Andros Island in the Bahamas, The Blue Hole is the story of four young boys who stole away from the confines of their close-knit and somewhat repressive out island community to go swimming-and the harrowing experience that awaited them in the dreaded blue hole.
