Medieval Warfare magazine – Preview of issue XI:1

The new issue of Medieval Warfare magazine takes a look at the issue of technological determinism – how important was the development of military technology when it comes to the Middle Ages?

This issue features the first-ever debate in the magazine, with Kelly DeVries and David Zimmerman taking a look back at Kelly’s groundbreaking article ‘Catapults are not Atomic Bombs: Towards a Redefinition of Effectiveness in Premodern Military Technology’.
