Following recent financial problems and bankruptcy, TAN Books, a leading publisher of traditional Catholic books, has been acquired by the North Carolina-based Saint Benedict Press.
Since its establishment in 1967, TAN Books and Publishers has published more than 600 books, including classics such as its Baltimore Catechism series, the Douay-Rheims Bible, and dozens of biographical works by and about the saints.
Last week, its assets were purchased by the owners of Saint Benedict Press.
TAN Books and Publishers will become an independent imprint within Saint Benedict Press. According to a press release, the new business relationship will allow TAN to maintain its “brand identity and publishing direction” under Vice President of Sales and Marketing, Brent Klaske, who will assume general management duties.
