At The Martialist we believe that knowledge is power. In order to empower you, the reader, we make a great deal of information available for free. It is our hope that you will find this information of use.
Be A Martialist
This is the booklet that started it all — our prototypical discussion of the philosophy of martialism, as practiced by the martialists who participate at this site and in our discussion forum. Be a Martialist is a PDF file that you may download right to you computer. This material will eventually be expanded into a full-length book that we hope will be a comprehensive treatment of the subject.
The_Homeless_Threat
A thorough treatise on the security threat offered by street people, vagrants, bums, “the homeless,” and any of several groups of people in whom our society misplaces its compassion. This is a PDF file.
Street_Chucks
A basic guide to the mechanics of the nunchaku, a thoroughly misunderstood martial arts weapon. This is a PDF file.
