I just read another of the outstanding analyses of the world- political situation, this one in regard to nuclear Iran's danger to the world, by Mark Steyn. 'City Journal' has along with Steyn other outstanding journalists, Theodore Darylmple, Stefan Kanfer.
This is what it says about itself.
"City Journal offers a stimulating mix of hard-headed practicality and cutting-edge theory, with articles on everything from school financing, policing strategy, and welfare policy to urban architecture, family policy, and the latest theorizing emanating from the law schools, the charitable foundations, even the schools of public health. Since urban policy encompasses almost all domestic policy questions, as well as the largest issues of our culture and society, the magazine views its canvas as very broad indeed. The magazine holds itself to the highest intellectual, journalistic, and literary standards, aiming to produce intelligent and absorbing reading for intelligent and discerning readers."
I believe this particular 'advertisement for myself' is accurate.

I read one of the most informative and sadly depressing articles ever in the magazine and I highly recommend it to anyone who seeks the truth which the MSM simply refuses to report on because it doesn't fit their blinkered, left-wing, p.c. worldview. The article was called The Prep School P.C. Plague, by a most erudite and stylistically elegant writer named MacDonald, I believe. I highly recommend it to anyone considering sending a poor hapless child off to a prep school as I was. It's a real eye-opener on the whitey-hating self-loathing that exists among liberals who run these elite schools. Great article and great magazine.

I am a new subscriber to this wonderful magazine. The list of their contributors made me subscribe to them. I am now so happy for doing just that. It's so informative, so provocative and useful. I am surprised by the greatness of this magazine considering it is being published in Leftoid land of NYC. If you like to hear/read fresh stuff about true conservatism and urban issues, this is your magazine. Highly recommended!

Did not receive a single copy. Tried several times to contact shipper, but no satisfaction, until it was "too late".

I have subscribed to City Journal in the past - and it is a fantastic magazine.

This service for magazines has horrible customer service. Ignored my initial requests for help, and then just blew me off.

Buy your City Journal somewhere else.
