I actually wrote this several years ago when I was just learning XSLT.
Since it worked, I moved on to tougher problems. I am embarrassed to
ask, but what is it I don’t understand? I could not get these two
files combined without doubling one of them until I used “dummy.xml”
(an empty xml file) in the bat file command line:
You haven't said what else you tried, so it's hard to tell you why it
didn't work. Not sure what you mean by "without doubling one of them".
If you don't want a dummy input file you can always change match="/*" on
this template to name="main", and set -it:main on the command line. And
delete the "* |" from the select, which doesn't seem to be doing
anything useful.

work\40Combined.xml
My style sheet 40Combine.xsl consists of a single template:
<xsl:template match="/*">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:copy-of select="* | document('../work/22Authors.xml')/*/*"
copy-namespaces="no"/>
<xsl:copy-of select="* | document('../work/35Subjects.xml')/*/*"
copy-namespaces="no"/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
22Authors.xml contains:
