Description: Smithsonian is the official journal published by the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C. It specializes in such topics as history, science, arts, and nature. The first issue was published in 1970. The 92-page November 2024 issues' cover story is: The Living Memory of Black Water - In 1855, a U.S. Army attack devastated a Lakota community in present-day Nebraska. How recovering the history of a little-known massacre is bringing healing to a generational tragedy. Other featured articles include: Birds on the Brink - On New Zealand's South Island, conservationists are going to extrad ordinary lengths to save the yellow-eyed penguin from extinction-removing hatchlings from their nests, hand-rearing the chicks and even plying them with fish smoothies.

Relearning the Language of the Land - The ancient art of wildlife tracking is making a comeback as biologists discover the rich data that can be gleaned from the marks animals leave behind. The Fruit Detective - Follow on passionate polymath as she scours Renaissance paintings, stately palazzos and secluded monastery gardens in her fervid endeavor to solve the centuries-spanning case of Italy's missing heritage fruit trees.
