Simply the Best March 11, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Harper's is simply the best magazine around--thoughtful, critical, varied, insightful, challenging. It refuses to bow down and to pretend that the emperor is not naked, and yet it does not have a shrill or grating tone. In a world gone mad, it is the voice of reason and sanity, liberal in the finest and most liberating sense of the word. It is the only magazine I give as gifts--as of 2008, to seven different people, who have all come to love it, and to look forward to it, as much as I do.

After reading my first issue of Harper's, I felt like I had just spent time with some very intelligent people ... excellent writing.
Still, It's a Good Magazine May 18, 2007 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
Although at times the advertising can be questionable (the recent issue includes an ad placed by Chevron), the content is well worth the low price of a subscription. There are few magazines left that include material of such depth, and the broad scope of its content is both suitable and satisfying.
One important benefit Harper's provides to its subscribers is access to the full content of all arhived issues back to 1850. This alone is worth the price of a subscription.
One more note: I hope it is appropriate to suggest subscribing directly, as this will knock off quite a few weeks of nail-biting anxiety as you impatiently and obsessively check your mailbox, waiting for the first copy of your subscription to arrive.
No signs of a subscription! February 19, 2007 1 out of 15 found this review helpful
On January 19th, I ordered this subscription as a gift for my niece. It is exactly a month later, and she has received no notification that she is going to receive the magazine. I was aware that the magazine would not arrive for several weeks, but in years past, notification has been sent out by magazines to inform recipients of the upcoming subscription. I give Harper's the benefit of the doubt when I give 3 stars... since I have yet to see any sign of a subscription.
Well written and interesting February 18, 2007 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I don't know how they do it, but Harper's always seems to present me with tidbits of information that I wouldn't have gotten anywhere else. It seems like they must have an army of people digging through documents to come up with some of their content. I generally read it cover to cover within a few days of getting it. I think it's great.
