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 2023 issues' cover story is: Trailblazer - Well before the field of anthropology was formally established, globe-trotting Mexican American researcher Zelia Nuttall wielded her deep curiosity and commanding intellect to shine a new light on Mesoamerican history. Other featured articles include: Healing in Hanoi - Fifty years after their release, a group of American prisoners of war return to the infamous compound where they and hundreds of other servicemen were held captive, beaten and interrogated during the Vietnam War. Going to Bat for Nature - After a bushfire season devastated Australia's wildlife, the gray-headed flying fox-long regarded as a vermin-is gaining defenders who see the super-pollinator as essential to regenerating the scorched landscape. Anish Kapoor's Crimson Tide - A grand palazzo in Venice has been reborn as the new creative hub for the world-famous sculptor, whose blood-red installations and canvases have set the art world on fire. It Can't Happen Here - In the depths of the Depression, the Federal Theater Project hired out-of-work actors to perform for the masses. But after a courageous play put fascism in the spotlight, the drama turned political.
