by excellent literature; from many well known and lesser know
authors. Read by academics, taxi drivers, school children and creators of

The articles cover a range of subjects including culture, geography, history,
archaeology, sociology, biology and science. Not only are the
articles expertly written, but they are always accompanied with stunning
photography. The authors and photographers for the National Geographic
represent a very broad cross section of the world’s people. Whether
living in the country, the city, in the north or the south, and from every
religion, contributors for the National Geographic are found worldwide.
The Maps
The maps are a quintessential part of The National Geographic magazine.
Maps regularly find their way into the National Geographic. If not a map
then an equally superb foldout poster, expertly detailing the current
topic.
Education
School children the world over will have learnt a great deal from the National
Geographic maps. But it doesn’t just stop with children. Every time I have pick
up a National Geographic magazine I learn a great deal, often about something I
did not realise I was so interested in. Every person I know who loves the
magazine cannot leave it alone. The topics are so diverse, and yet often so
subtly interlinked.
The films
It would be hard to imagine the film makers of the films in this web site not
being huge fans of the National Geographic magazine. I know many of the
directors and cinematographers have used images and articles from the magazine
as direct inspiration for locations or scenes in their films.
Subscription
A subscription to the National Geographic magazine is an excellent purchase to
keep one in touch with the changes and issues of the planet over a year. A
subscription also makes a fabulous present. Image how pleased you would be to
receive a subscription as a gift!
