Stories in Precious Stones

Helen Zimmern
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.

Mapping Canada's Music Selected Writings of Helmut Kallmann

Helmut Kallmann
Mapping Canada's Music is a selection of writings by the late Canadian music librarian and historian Helmut Kallmann (1922-2012). Most of the essays deal with aspects of Canadian music, but some are also autobiographical, including one written during retirement in which Kallmann recalls growing up in a middle-class Jewish family in 1930s Berlin under the spectre of Nazism. Of the seventeen selected writings by Kallmann, five have never before been published; many of the others are from difficult-to-locate sources. They include critical and research essays, reports, reflections, and memoirs. Each chapter is prefaced with an introduction by the editors. Two initial chapters offer a biography of Kallmann and an assessment of his contributions to Canadian music. The variety, breadth, and scope of these writings confirm Kallmann's pioneering role in Canadian music research and the importance of his legacy to the cultural life of his adopted country. In the current climate of cuts to archival collections and services, the publication of these essays by and about a pre-eminent collector and historian serves as a timely reminder of the importance of cultural memory.

The Magical Tales of Dr. Baer: Emily's Miracle A Story of Hope

Henry Baer,Chris Lombardi
Dearest Reader: The story you now have in front of you is a real-life miracle. Beware, though: for even the most incredible miracles can sometimes come with a price. For ten-year-old Emily Sweet, the price could be her very life. If you decide to read this book, be warned that you will experience Emily Sweet's highs and lows as if you are alongside her. On one hand, you will find her story uplifting, exciting, and inspiring. You'll ride along as she discovers a magical bottle with a life-changing message inside, and travels on both an invisible hot air balloon and a whale-shaped submarine. You'll be there when she converses with talking animals and discovers new and exciting friends on a wondrous secret island filled with super-cool inventions, boundless adventure, and a special child-saving company whose leader happens to be a six-foot, four-inch panda bear doctor! But Emily has her share of disappointment, too. You'll experience Emily's many unpleasantries, like being abandoned at birth and being sent to live with a wretched, hideous pet grooming foster mom. When Emily comes down with a mysterious illness, she rubs shoulders with an evil, child-hating doctor armed with an army of grotesque, masked, killer mall mannequins -- determined to not only stop her and other unfortunate children from being happy, but to destroy the special child saving company and the giant panda bear doctor who runs it. Please help children in need by reading this story, then spread the word so others will also read it. Hopefully, together, we can make sad children happy, one story at a time. For the Children, Dr. Henry J. Baer CSFR Inc.
