 Great magazine at a great price!!! July 19, 2008
I ordered the Smithsonian magazine as a Father's Day gift due to the fact it was so easy and offered at such a great price. The ability to print out a gift card was a great touch because then I had something to send my dad, rather than just a promise to get something in 4-6 weeks.
The offer email I received from Amazon was really helpful when trying to think of ideas for Father's Day and the ordering process was quick, easy and cheap! Thank you Amazon!
Fabulous value June 28, 2008
Smithsonian is a fantastic magazine and ususlly costs at least $35 a year, so this is a wonderful value. Go for it!
Still as good as ever! June 24, 2008
I let my subscription lapse several years ago (because of the price)and really missed this great magazine. Amazon offers the best price I've ever seen, so I HAD to re-subscribe. I was a little hesitant because of some bad reviews where people complained about the lengthy wait for the subscription to begin, but went ahead anyway. I ordered on 5-4, and was informed right away that the first issue would arrive "sometime between 6-23 and 7-21". The first issue arrived on 6-24, so I am happy, and will spend the evening curled up on the sofa with it. I enjoy the thorough, thought provoking articles. Every issue teaches me something I didn't know about the world I live in. I highly recommend this magazine.
Excellent Writing! June 17, 2008
It is not often a general publication that treats a variety of subjects that one can be interested in reading them all.
I found this magazine to have excellent writing together with very interesting subject matter. A recent issue had a story on Great White Sharks and their intelligent behavior, a brief history of the Mormon Church, and a story on the private museums in Europe.
The stories are very interesting and extremely well written.
I highly recommend this magazine.
Love the magazine May 31, 2008
I gave this subscription to my husband and he loves it....when he is done with a copy we send it off to my military son in Kosovo. As with a lot of men, my husband doesn't do a lot of reading....but he devours the articles in the Smithsonian! The magazine is packed with much interesting information....which he passes on to others, including me.
