Civil War Courier

Civil War CourierAs an avid Civil War fan and reinactor, I like following all the latest news on the Civil War front. You would be surprised at how much news, articles, stories, book reviews, and latest developments there are on a war that came to a finish well over a century ago. For those of us that still have a strong interest in this tragic but always fascinating time in our nations history, a modern up to date newsletter is a very interesting periodical to have arriving every month in your mailbox. Civil War Courier is one of two such newsletters available for subscription on Amazon currently. The "Courier" and "Civil War News". Having had a subscription to both in the past, I decided to opt for the Courier. It just seems to have a slight edge in its diversity of subjects in my opinion over the CW News. (Plus the Courier is published every month, the News skips one month). I really enjoy this finely written and very informative news letter magazine. And I like the fact that it comes every month. I did take one star off for the Courier can be a little thin at times, (not every month), and I can sometimes run through all its articles and such in less than 20 minutes. But overall I feel it is well worth the price being asked for a yearly subscription. It is always interesting, diverse and up to date, and one of the very few ways that one can keep up on the newest current events, opinions, and discoveries on what is probably the most fascinating chapter of Americas memoirs.....

Garden Gate

Garden GateThis magazine contains in-depth plant information & garden design ideas with no ads. Great deal for the price!

Garden Gate Magazine is a publication for gardeners of all stripesa magazine with nice photography, gardening and craft instructions, and general tips to make your garden and general landscaping look better then ever. Amatuers and experienced gardeners alike will find many useful tips and bits of advice on decoration, plant care, and more.

I'm not big on outdoor creations, but I agree that a wellmanicured landscape and a nice garden area is not only easy on the eyes, it can also add a sense of peacefulness by its mere presence. Who doesn't enjoy walking into a beautiful garden area? Even if you have little interest in gardening, horticulture, or anything related, there is much to be said for a nice, green/flowery yard and Garden Gate Magazine is very useful to help you achieve exactly that, with projects and advice for individuals at different skill levels.

I have been reading Garden Gate Magazine for only a short time but I have found much useful information in this publication. The lists and the step by step instructions are among my favorites and I like that the magazine is not geared only toward those with the extragreen thumbs. I am not very skilled in a garden so I need a publication that respects my limited abilities. Garden Gate Magazine has plenty to offer an inexperienced person like myself and at the same time, it has plenty of great ideas that involve more extensive building and planting, making the magazine useful for the more experienced individual. Garden Gate Magazine leaves no person behind, and that is one of the publication's many appeals.

Garden Gate Magazine spells everything out nicely and includes plenty of diagrams so that even an outdoor klutz like myself can figure out what each thing means and what to do. The magazine has a good deal of information, too, and some might find it surprising that a publication with only 50 pages can include so much in so little space. Take a look at the Departments, "In Every Issue", and features listed above. When was the last time you saw a table of contents like that in a fifty-page magazine? There is a reason Garden Gate Magazine is able to pack in so much in so little room and the reason is there are no advertisements!! This is such a refreshing change from other magazines and it makes a big difference when you are trying to follow instructions. There is nothing to distract and the articles are not very long, making this the perfect reading option for those with shorter attention spans.

When a magazine is free from advertisements, it is often high in price and Garden Gate Magazine is no exception. The magazine is published only six times per year and each issue carries a high cover price around five dollars. To make matters worse, you don't get much of a cut in price when you subscribe. Buy all six issues at your local newsstand and it will cost you $30. Subscribe for a year, and it will cost you $24. This is a savings, yes, but it isn't nearly the level of subscription savings so common with other magazines. A twoyear deal makes the savings better (presently 2 years are offered for $38, cutting the cover price by 37 percent), but the cost per issue is still quite high and it is the direct result of publishing adfree.

If you can get past the cost, however, you will find that Garden Gate Magazine is a very good magazine with much to offer everyone who loves a nice landscape. As I said, I'm not even much into this type of work and I don't landscape as a hobby, yet I still like reading this magazine. If a publication can pique the interest of someone who doesn't even have a true interest in the subject, it must be doing something right and Garden Gate Magazine is definitely a periodical that is doing almost everything correctly.

Fire Engineering

Fire EngineeringFire Engineering, in my opinion is the benchmark that many other fire publications try to meet. If you are looking for a fire magazine that is not full of hype and has serious professionals writing articles then in my opinion this is the one for you. Articles are based on fact and have been field tested many times. I think that Fire Engineering takes difficult topics and makes sense out of them, in a pratical and easy to understand way. In my opinion there are probably about 5-7 great/good fire magazines out there but this one tops my list. If you are involved with the fire service and want to stay on top of current, tested and proven methods this is the magazine for you. Although Fire Engineering seems to have its share of advertisements they do not seem to bow to any particular manufacturer. Stay safe, wear your seatbelt, and come home alive.

Bear Hunting

Bear HuntingI have been a subscriber to Bear Hunting Magazine since it's second issue. It is still the only magazine devoted solely to Bear Hunting. It is also the only magazine that I read cover to cover. If you are interested in bears or bear hunting at all I highly recommend this magazine. It is not as "commercialized" as the other, bigger hunting mags. I think the editor must have some great connections with bear hunters because he gets stories noone else has. The photography is great, too.

This magazine is EXCELLENT for anyone interested in bear hunting. Every isue is packed with a ton of information from just getting started to a well seasoned hunter its got it all. if your interested in bear hunting you CANT find a better magazine.
