Product information

The fascinating story of the Lesbian Phalanx unfolds just before the Balkan Wars of 1912-1913 and World War I. Μen from Lesbos started immigrating to the USA to help their families back on the island, but mainly to avoid being drafted into the Ottoman army (Lesbos was still part of the Ottoman Empire). When it was clear that war was imminent, the Lesbians of the USA managed to form a military unit, financed by the Lesbian Greek Community of the USA.
