2 out of 5 stars Why pay more?   June 1, 2008

This is a great magazine; however, unless I am missing something, the cost of a year's subscription is only $15 on the National Geographic site.

National Geo. was a family favorite growing up. My parents got us the subscription so we could have great references for projects with great pictures. Now, all grown up I purchased this for my brother for his birthday as a staple magazine for his new family.

1 out of 5 stars Junk Mail galore   January 11, 2008
 5 out of 5 found this review helpful

I will no longer subscribe to National Geographic. This year we started getting unsolicited junk from either National Geographic or their "partner" companies masquerading as National Geographic and then billing us for the DVDs, maps, etc. I expressed my concerns in a letter to National Geographic about the problem and they did not bother to contact me. Of course now they are sending these bogus bills to their "collection department." No more National Geographic magazine EVER!


5 out of 5 stars Broad overview   December 26, 2007

National Geographic offers a broad overview about almost all interesting issues concerning history, science and nature. I always enjoy to get the next issue since besides the main theme on the cover there's a variety of additional coverages of present and past matters. Also the effects of global warming, foreign cultures, historic events and processes, the destruction of nature by man and many social problems in Third World countries are described and explained in detail.
I just love that magazine and don't want to miss it anymore. It's worth to collect it in a slipcase or anything like that. The coverages often have up-to-date reference but also there are many articles and passages which are just timeless.
This subscription at amazon I've purchased for a dear friend who has not the money to buy the monthly issues, just to share everything with her. I'm sure she'll enjoy the magazine since she's so much interested in all those issues dealt with.
I would recommend it highly. For everyone who is interested I even would recommend to go ahead into the next bookshop and take a look into the current issue, just to get an overview what I'm writing about.
Enjoy reading! I look forward to each coming monthly issue of this great magazine.
