Franckh-Kosmos ... of undiminished impact ...

In 2022, the Stuttgart-based Kosmos Verlag celebrates its 200th anniversary. It's not just its long history that sets the company apart: Franckh-Kosmos Verlags-GmbH & Co. KG is also one of the few large German publishing houses that still operates as an owner-managed family business. What were and are the decisive factors in this successful company history? Which people, ideas, and visions shaped the program design in the various eras? The company's chronicle traces its exciting development: from the first literary successes of the two Franckh brothers to the Kosmos Society for Nature Lovers and the digitally and internationally positioned media company of today.

The book portrays visionary entrepreneurs with courage and business acumen, critically analyzes the period of the two world wars, and describes the mission for the future to which the publisher feels committed based on its long tradition: to keep books and toys attractive and relevant for future generations.

An exciting look behind the scenes and at the success factors of a strong publishing brand through changing times.
