British Military History magazine
In the latest issue we cover:
Knights Templar - Stormtroops of the Crusades
Mode fiction has immortalised the Order of the Temple as a force for good. But how much of that portrayal is true? MHM casts a critical eye over the romanticised image of the famous order of 12th-century warrior-monks.
History of the British Army - Minden, 1 August 1759
After the victories at Plassey and Quebec, the British Army had one more crucial battle to fight on the field of Minden before British imperial supremacy was secured.
The SAS War Diary - 1941 – 1945
To celebrate the 70th anniversary of the formation of the SAS, Gordon Stevens tells the story of the long-lost SAS War Diary and the secrets it reveals.
Pearl Harbor - The flawed gamble
Regular MHM contributor Keith Robinson argues that the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor on 7 January 1941 was a desperate and hopeless gamble on the part of Japan’s militarist elite.
Bulgaria’s Verdun - The Forgotten Front
History often overlooks the fighting on the Macedonian Front during WWI. Here, MHM sheds light on the British attack of the Bulgarian trench-fortress of Doiran in spring 1917.
Also in this issue: Museums, Book Reviews and Battlefield guides.
