Four Mags

A QUICK catch-up on recent magazine-reading.
Fab four
The September/October 2019 edition of Slingshot has a good variety of articles, with the most interesting for me being Mick Hession's on military campaigns in 15th century Ireland.
The October/November 2019 edition of Toy Soldier Collector, labelled "15th Anniversary Issue," has its usual great eye-candy.
The Sep/Oct 2019 edition of Ancient Warfare is themed around the importance of geography in ancient battles, and I found the whole issue fascinating.
The October 2019 edition of History Today has a lurid cover but interesting contents, including church-going in Victorian and Edwardian Britain (it was not as popular as you might think) and how women shaped the monarchy in France (a much bigger subject than space allows, but you have to start somewhere).
