He began to publish books in 1912, including introductions to topics in electrical engineering under the Franckh'schen Verlagshandlung imprint and popular science works in the same publisher's Kosmos series.
Today, his most important book is considered to be "In a hundred years: the world's future energy supply" (In hundert Jahren - Die künftige Energieversorgung der Welt), which was published in 1931 for Franckh's "Friends of Nature Club" (Gesellschaft der Naturfreunde).
