Quality

Early Dover books were noted for their quality. On the back of these paperbacks, Dover wrote:

We have made every effort to make this the best book possible. Our paper is opaque with minimal show-through; it will not discolor or become brittle with age. Pages are sewn in signatures, in the method traditionally used for the best books and will not drop out as so often happens with paper backs held with glue. Books open flat for easy reference. The binding will not crack or split. This is a permanent book.

    The quality of a marriage is proven by its ability to tolerate an occasional “exception.”
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
