Dacia: The Roman Wars Vol. I almost here!
Radu Oltean's book on Trajan's first campaign in Dacia is almost ready to ship. Packed with historical photographs, archaeological finds, and most importantly this Romanian illustrator's lovely paintings, it's no wonder that Dacia is now in its third printing! If you haven't yet gotten a chance to pick up a copy, now is a great time, as you'll save slightly off the normal cover price if you pre-order in the next couple of weeks.
Medieval Warfare 11-1 is now at the printers. In this first issue of volume 11, we're taking a broad look at the interplay between warfare and technology in the Middle Ages. The centrepiece of this theme is a debate between Kelly DeVries and David Zimmerman on technological determinism. Was there really a tech revolution at the end of the Middle Ages? Does a modern perspective provide new insight into medieval military developments? Other tech-centric articles look at the pesky 'stirrup thesis,' and the evolution of fortifications around medieval Calais. You can pre-order this issue now to save slightly on the cover price, or consider subscribing to get a new issue of Medieval Warfare sent to you every month.
Ancient Warfare 14-4 coming soon
Now in production, the latest issue of Ancient Warfare tackles the first eventful years of the Greco-Persian War. Articles include a look at the early alliances formed by the Greek city-states, composition and organisation of the Persian army, and a centrefold article dedicated to the 480 BC Battle of Salamis. Of course, the Greco-Persian War is a big topic, so we'll be returning for even more fun in a future issue (and don't forget the Marathon Special!) In the meantime, you can pre-order a copy now to save slightly on the cover price, or simply take out a subscription to Ancient Warfare magazine to enjoy even more ancient military history goodness going forward.
The final issue of Medieval Warfare volume 10 is now at the printers. This time around, the theme focuses on the Siege of Acre, a pivotal battle of the Third Crusade. Expert John Hosler goes into detail about the particulars of the siege, with Izik Polack and Steve Tibble providing supporting articles on the medieval city itself, and the role of common infantrymen during the Third Crusade.
You can pre-order this issue now to save slightly on the cover price, or even take out a full subscription to Medieval Warfare magazine.
We're excited to announce that the newest issue of Ancient History is about to go to the printers. This time around, we're taking a look at travel and tourism in antiquity, with wide-ranging articles including the Emperor Hadrian's journeys across the empire, Egyptian interaction with and perception of foreign lands, and Pausanias' travel guides to Ancient Greece and Asia Minor. As always, you can pre-order issue 31 now to save slightly on the cover price, or sign up for a full subscription to Ancient History magazine.
