Slingshot Jul-Aug 2017

THE July-August issue arrived yesterday, meaning the Society Of Ancients is catching up with its publishing schedule.
A striking cover...showing a Roman sentry looking "towards the Rhine and the oncoming Vandals"
Unusually for Slingshot, there are no detailed battle reports - usually the highlight of the magazine, at least for me.
However, I did much enjoy Simon MacDowall's potted Vandal history and Nicholas Spratt's account of 17th century Tibetan invasions of Bhutan.
