Reviews
Not one of the essays fails to provide something novel and valuable to the student of military history. * HOBILAR *
This issue of the Journal contains innovations. The focus, both geographical and chronological, is markedly narrower than in previous issues; the redesigned cover carries a nicely reproduced illumination; and the reader is offered an index of the contents of all previous issues. [...] The enterprise looks increasingly confident and in good shape. * HISTORY *
