America Centennial
America is celebrating 100 years in publication! Throughout the next year, we will
be featuring articles and online features looking at the storied
history of the magazine; excerpts from some of our "greatest hits" of our top writers in the last
100 years, and even some humorous "hits and misses," which the magazine gave poor reviews to good
books, and good reviews to bad public figures. We invite you to browse through our selection of
centennial features posted under the
America Century link.
Our Centennial year will conclude with a special, expanded anniversary
issue on April 13, 2009, for which we are already accepting space reservations for congratulatory
messages. Join us in our centennial celebration by reserving
your ad space today.

The rate for the publication of a print retreat ad are as follows: up to 80 words including contact information = $245;
over 80 words including contact information = $2 per/word. You may also publish the retreat ad with the image on our
