Iron Cross, a UK magazine focused on German military history from 1914 to 1945, is now available through the Exact Editions digital platform. Libraries can subscribe directly through Exact Editions to give their students and academics unlimited digital access to the complete archive and ongoing issues, and Exact editions says individual subscriptions including digital access will be available on the publisher’s website soon. Iron Cross is one of over 20 specialist interest titles by Warners Group Publications that are hosted by Exact Editions, ranging in subject from art and crafts to outdoor hobbies.
Launched in June 2019, Exact Editions says Iron Cross puts the German military under the microscope; looking at organisations and tactics, as well as at materiel, technology, politics, and the more personal and human elements of the German serviceman’s experience. Featuring accounts of historical battles, profiles of military figures, and analyses of wartime strategies and artefacts, the magazine covers the land, sea, and air war across all periods of both wars.
Exact Editions says as well as navigational tools that permit readers to browse, read and share content, institutional subscriptions are IP-authenticated for seamless access and benefit from a comprehensive search function that enables readers to pinpoint specific battles, key words or important war figures from the whole archive at the touch of a button. Individual subscriptions will be facilitated through Exact Editions’ Universals Service, which allows publishers to sell their own digital access through their website, continued the company.
Sophie Thornton, marketing manager at Warners Group Publications, commented: “The comprehensive analysis and expert commentary in Iron Cross is relevant across multiple academic disciplines, from military history to international relations or political science, making it a perfect choice for Exact Editions’ international library audience.”
Managing director of Exact Editions, Daryl Rayner, said: “Iron Cross’s addition to the platform marks a strengthening of the long-standing partnership between Exact Editions and Warners Group Publications. We’re looking forward to continuing to expand their titles’ reach across the globe and increasing digital revenues.”
Institutional subscriptions to Iron Cross are available in the Exact Editions shop here.
