photographer and their best and most renowned photographs. Each volume begins

with a forward from the NGM Director of Photography, David Griffin, and moves on

to a personal essay written by the photographer, which tells about their life, their

work in the field, and how they captured the images contained within the book. The

of the photographer. Designed specifically with a global audience in mind, these

NGM Locally Created Special Issues

PlacesFrom the railways of Asia to the forests of North America, National Geographic Magazine partners are fascinated with both well-traveled and newly discovered places. Special issues can focus on one country or a single geographic region, like our Italian special issue on Tibet, or our German special issue on the New England region of the United States. Places can also embody a theme such as forests, islands, rivers, or deserts. For example, our Thai partners chose to focus on the theme of “man-made places” in their 2008 special on Cities.

50 Tours of a LifetimeIn our annual Tours of a Lifetime issue, we scour the globe for

guided trips that highlight authenticity, sustainability and cultural

immersion. Some of these excursions - camel caravanning in

Morocco and delving into the wilds of southwestern Chien are

surprisingly affordable. Tour companies, now adding all sort of

extras, are more than willing to negotiate. If there’s a time to go, it’s

now. But if this is not the year for a trip of a lifetime, you’ll find our

50 tour picks add up to a fascinating survey of the world’s travel

riches, a resource to keep and revisit.
