Our
Readers and the Media Agree,
History Magazine is the Best!
"I will say flat out that I am hooked on History Magazine.
Wide-ranging, slick, intelligent and fascinating, this is a
publication for the history buff… Take a look, then order this
wonderful magazine."
Murray Bowman, Essential Resources for Schools and Libraries
"Fascinating reading!"
Carole Osborne Cole, Davis County Clipper
"A wealth of information… written in a style that appeals to
the average person, rather than the historical scholar."
Regina Hines, The Mississippi Press
"For people who weren't paying attention in world history or
American history classes in high school and have come to regret
their lack of knowledge about the world we came from, subscribing
to History Magazine is guaranteed to be a painless and
enjoyable way to re-educate yourself about the past."
Tamie Dehler, Tribune Star
"You shouldn't miss an issue of this delightful publication."
Betty Kirkland, The Clarke County Tribune
"Here is a great publication to put on your holiday wish list
or gift your favorite genealogist, historian, or research facility
with."
Carole Kiernan, Tri-City Record
The following comments are from History Magazine's
Reader Survey (May 2002)
"I LOVE this magazine… I read it, my children read it then it
goes to my best friend who reads it and takes in to her class
at high school where it is the most signed out periodical she
has!!"
"It is interesting, educational and helps me with my genealogy"
"I like the articles that enable me to "see and hear" my ancestors
in their historical setting. It helps me to know them and the
things that likely affected their lives."
"I really like the emphasis on social history, and the wide
variety of topics. I like the mixture of odd and frivolous topics
as well as the more traditional historical topics. I also like
that the mixture of broad overviews as well as specific incidents
and obscure historical details. I like that the
magazine is not written just for the general reader or the expert,
but has information appealing to both."
"There is always something of great interest for every reader
in our home."
"There's nothing else like it out there, and I read it cover
to cover when it arrives. There are a wonderful variety of topics
and articles within each issue."
