Lithuanian Heritage Magazine

Lithuanian Heritage Magazine contains both historical and contemporary information about Lithuania and immigrants in the US. It also has some advertising about Lithuanian products and travel. The articles are well-written and the pictures are beautiful. I highly recommend this magazine. My mother is 90 and first generation American. She reads each issue from cover to cover, twice. I have learned much about my Lithuanian roots.

Each issue contains some "gems" of information about Lithuania of the present or of the past. Personal stories, descriptions going deep into history, travel experiences through various regions and towns, and of course, articles on traditions, sports, cultural and political events, religious celebrations, that make up the essence of Lithuanianism. Individuals of note are highlighted, books are reviewed, recipes provided, and so much more. And, for those interested in Lithuanian publications on a myriad of topics, amber, or other artifacts, a mini-catalogue offers choices. A highly readable magazine, lavishly illustrated, should be on the coffee table of anyone with interest in what constitutes the concept "Lithuanian" both in the home country and abroad.

"Lithuanian Heritage" is a great magazine for anyone interested in Lithuania, Lithuanians, or European history. The articles are expertly written, and each issue contains important updates on the impact of Lithuanians around the world, Lithuanian customs, and efforts to preserve Lithuanian heritage. Famous and influential Lithuanians are profiled in every issue, and important cultural points of interest (like, for example, the Vilnius Museum of Antiquities) are discussed in depth in well-illustrated articles.

Many articles deal with Lithuanian life, with diverse topics ranging from Christmas in Lithuania to skiing in Lithuania. Most issues also include articles on Lithuanian cooking, in a well done column by Dana Siliunas titled "Let's Cook Lithuanian." These recipes for traditional dishes like "Poppy Seed Milk," "Fish Fillets in Tomato Sauce," and "Christmas Eve Biscuits" are simple, yet delicious cultural reminders.

The magazine is available by subscription or at several retail outlets (though mostly in the Chicago area and Ohio), and for anyone interested in the lore, history, pageantry, and, yes, heritage, of Lithuania, this is the best publication you will ever find!
