520    In an era before affordable travel, National Geographic 
       not only served as the first glimpse of countless other 
       worlds for its readers, but it helped them confront 
       sweeping historical change. There was a time when its 
       cover, with the unmistakable yellow frame, seemed to be on
       every coffee table, in every waiting room. In American 
       Iconographic, Stephanie L. Hawkins traces National 
       Geographic's rise to cultural prominence, from its first 
       publication of nude photographs in 1896 to the 1950s, when
       the magazine's trademark visual and textual motifs found 
       their way into cartoon caricature, popular novels, and 
       film trading on the "romance" of the magazine's 
       distinctive visual fare. Drawing on the National 
       Geographic Society's archive of readers' letters and its 
       founders' correspondence, Hawkins reveals how the 
       magazine's participation in the "culture industry" was not
       so straightforward as scholars have assumed. Letters from 
       the magazine's earliest readers offer an important 
       intervention in this narrative of passive spectatorship, 
       revealing how readers resisted and revised National 
       Geographic's authority. Its photographs and articles 
       celebrated American self-reliance and imperialist 
       expansion abroad, but its readers were highly aware of 
       these representational strategies, and alert to 
       inconsistencies between the magazine's editorial vision 
       and its photographs and text. Hawkins also illustrates how
       the magazine actually encouraged readers to question 
       Western values and identify with those beyond the nation's
       borders. Chapters devoted to the magazine's practice of 
       photographing its photographers on assignment and to its 
       genre of husband-wife adventurers reveal a more 
       enlightened National Geographic invested in a cosmopolitan
       vision of a global human family.
