Helion & Company Ltd is one of the world’s leading publishers and booksellers of military history in the English language. The company was founded in 1996 by University of Warwick graduate Duncan Rogers.
Since its inception, Helion has gone from strength to strength and currently publishes approximately 100 titles per annum.
Helion was quick to embrace the world of social media and is proud to currently have more than 4,000 followers on its Twitter account, which is monitored and updated with fresh content on a daily basis to ensure the latest news is always readily available.
The Twitter account works in tandem with the Helion website (www.helion.co.uk), which hosts current news stories – such as the company working in association with the Western Front Association to offer unique First World War scholarship prizes – alongside details of forthcoming events, the latest company catalog and a series of links for browsers to learn more about titles both old and new.
The recently-launched Wolverhampton Military Studies series boasts more than a dozen titles, which are designed to present academic military history in a new and innovative way – a fitting concept for a forward-thinking company.
Helion’s commitment to implementing fresh, bold business ideas is also suitably exemplified in its recent decision to supply a series of high-quality military art prints to customers for framing and display.
