History
The publishing house was founded in 1789 by Johann Heinrich Wilhelm Dieterici in Berlin. As the business owner he had no male descendant, so the company took the name of his printer's son, Ernst Siegfried Mittler. Later, the family obtained the special privileges of the Prussian royal house. The publishing and printing house became one of the largest publishing houses in Germany and occupied a staff of several hundred people in the nineteenth century.
The catalog of the publisher extended from school books to scientific publications, mainly in the areas of history, philosophy, literature, statistics, directories, atlases and scientific publications. E.S. Mittler und Sohn thus became the main publishing house for military history and literature, and printed the instructions and journals of the armed forces. Although this part of the production of the publisher made less than half of the publications, the company's success was closely tied to the political development of Germany.
The house continues to publish books of military history, national security policy and works of contemporary industrial technology. The house is headquartered in Hamburg, also the current location of the holding company, which is owned by Peter Tamm.
