JANUARY COVER: By way of introduction to this special issue on Mediterranean Europe, graphic artist and designer George Giusti has devised this appropriate collage.
NEXT MONTH: In Holiday for February, novelist Merle Miller relates the many pleasures of Carnival in Rio, with festive photographs by Pete Turner; journalist Brock Brower joins with Ronald Searle in a lighthearted account of Skiing in New England; and James Morris tours Egypt’s ancient yet reborn Alexandria. For those who fare best past the midnight hour, Frederic Morton offers some wise, witty and helpful observations about New York’s El Morocco; and for the politically inclined, Douglas M. Davis provides a discerning composite portrait of Our Young Men in Congress. And art connoisseur Marvin Elkoff gives some expert advice in a Holiday Handbook on Collecting Original Prints.
