About us The first product with the TRUD’s logo is released on March 1st, 1936. However TRUD Publishing House was founded in 1992. In 1994 it is registered as a daughter company of Media Holding – a complex of several newspapers, namely Daily TRUD, Night TRUD and Weekly TRUD. Since 1997 the major shareholder in Media Holding is the German media giant WAZ. Now-a-days there are about 20 employees and more than 30 part-timers, among them are some of the best Bulgarian translators, editors, proofreaders and designers.
For these 15 years more than 700 titles were published with TRUD’s logo – fiction and non-fiction, in hardcover or in paperback. Some of our most outstanding titles and authors are: the memoirs of Sir Winston Churchill, the fundamental works of H. Kissinger The Diplomacy, Does America Need a Foreign Policy and The Crisis, the first unabridged edition of Dimitar Dimov’s Tobacco, the one volume Bulgarian Encyclopedia A to Z (in cooperation with the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences), Who’s Who in Bulgaria, the Bible of every painter – Die Gestalt des Menschen and Die Gestalt des Tieres by prof.
