MILITARY HISTORY

War is a matter of vital importance to the State:
The Province of life or death:
The Road to Survival or Ruin:
It is mandatory that it be thoroughly studied.

The Xenophon Group International was organized to promote the study of military history. We began by publishing a magazine devoted to Early Modern Military History, Gorget & Sash of which some printed copies are available, and we have added the 12 issues to this web site, the links are in the index. This page serves as an link to topical pages relating to these subjects which are listed as they are created in the Index, below.
Special - here is a link to our very long time associate and artist Dana Lombardy's full selection of the excellent production he is publishing .
