CONTRIBUTORS

MICHAEL HASKEW

For this issue’s cover feature, starting on page 24, Mike spoke with two historians about perhaps the most fascinating and formidable American general of WWII: George Patton. They discuss his leadership style, controversies and battlefield tactics.

MURRAY DAHM

In this issue’s Frontline, Murray takes a look at the military decline of the Byzantine Empire — the last remnants of the Roman Empire. He explores the origins of the split between the Eastern and Western Empires, and the final collapse of Byzantium.

STUART HADAWAY
