      • Verlag "Die Silberschnur" GmbH

        In 1982, the publishing company, Die Silberschnur, was founded by Helga Huber, the mother of the present general manager, Stefan Huber.

The best seller author of the beginning years of the publishing company is the well-known doctor and death researcher, Elisabeth Kübler-Ross. Her book Über den Tod und das Leben danach (About Death and Life Thereafter) quickly became a big success. It has been translated into several languages and at the present, it has sold over a million copies around the world. Over the years, Silberschnur has become known as one of the leading publishing companies in Germany for spiritual and esoteric literature. With well-known authors, such as Trutz Hardo, Germany´s best known past life regression expert, international best seller author Kurt Tepperwein, Saint Germain´s medium Myra and famous TV-astrologer Andrea Buchholz, Silberschnur offers a wide variety of subjects.

        Rebuilding Life After the Anschluss, A Family Memoir

        by Charles Paterson and Carrie Paterson

        The riveting family memoir of a Frank Lloyd Wright apprentice and his resourceful father begins in Nazi-occupied Europe and journeys “home” to American modernism amid the snowy mountains of Colorado. Charles Paterson (1929–2018) was nine years old when the Nazis invaded Vienna in March, 1938. Fleeing Austria for Czechoslovakia just months later, only to witness the invasion of Hitler for a second time in Prague, the author and his sister escaped to Paris to rejoin their refugee father Stefan before being adopted in Australia. Meanwhile, Stefan’s daring three-month-long escape through France by foot and bicycle, told in a detailed letter to his children from Lisbon, is a story unto itself.
