Overview
Overview
Herbert Grabert (1901–1978), a former senior civil servant and lecturer in Alfred Rosenberg's Reich Ministry for the Occupied Eastern Territories, founded a publishing house named Verlag der Deutschen Hochschullehrer-Zeitung (engl. "Publisher of the German University Teacher-Newspaper") in 1953. In 1961, Grabert published the book Der erzwungene Krieg (The Forced War) by David L. Hoggan, which blamed the outbreak of World War II on an alleged Anglo-Polish conspiracy to wage aggression against Germany. Hoggan's book became one of the many extreme-right wing, revisionist publications that followed. The book was a best seller significantly contributing to the commercial success of the publishing house. In 1974 Grabert named his publishing house after himself. His son Wigbert (born 1941) took over the management. He received a DM 30,000 fine after he had published a book by Germar Rudolf denying the Holocaust in 1994.
It is associated with Germany. The record gives 1953 as its date of establishment or first appearance. Its recorded founders are Herbert Grabert.
