Description: National Geographic is a popular American monthly magazine published by National Geographic Partners. Known for its photojournalism, it is one of the most widely read magazines of all time. It was founded in 1888 as a scholarly journal. The August 1987 issue of this magazine is available and as always, it does not disappoint. The topics covered by this magazine are as appropriate today as they were when it was published. The ads are often more interesting than the articles! The cover story is titled: Africa's Stricken Sahel - Catastrophe looms for an abused realm on the Sahara's southern fringe. Other featured articles include: Oasis of Art in the Sahara - Ethno-archaeologist Henri Lhote interprets rock paintings in a mysterious gallery created by prehistoric peoples of Algeria. The Hudson's Bay Company: Canada's Fur-Trading Empire - Once the largest corporate landowner in the world "the Bay" remains the oldest chartered company anywhere. Indianapolis: City on the Rebound - Yesterday's "Naptown" is wide awake and ready for action, with a sporty new look and plenty of civic pride. Giant's of the Wilderness: Alaskan Moose - Will the politics of wilderness management versus hunters' rights affect the fate of the moose? Cover - Overwhelmed by despair, a boy in Mali reflects the hopelessness of life in Africa's Sahel, where land abuse helps bankrupt the environment. Despite massive economic aid and relief efforts, its people balance at the edge of survival. Photography by Steve McCurry. If you were to purchase a back issue through the National Geographic Society, it would cost $7.00 with U.S. delivery. I have a number of back issues of National Geographic from various years. If you are looking for a specific issue, please let me know. I supply shipping discounts to multiple purchases. Due to changes in USPS policy and a recent postage rate increase, I have had to raise my shipping costs.
