Reader’s Digest was first published in 1922 by American copywriter, Dewitt Wallace, who decided to create a new genre of magazine after reading several during his convalescence following a First World War shrapnel injury.
This new magazine would contain the most interesting and engaging articles across a breadth of topics, so that readers could read about the most important and interesting current affairs, news and trends in one easy-to-carry publication. Fast forward to today, and after 95 years it’s clear that Reader’s Digest has grown into one of the world’s best-loved general-interest magazines, containing something for everyone.
The first UK issue was published in 1938 and today, it boasts a monthly edit of the most interesting articles on current affairs, entertainment and lifestyle: from unbelievable real-life stories and gripping adventures to surprising money-saving tips. A digital subscription to Reader’s Digest magazine is the perfect pocket-sized way to stay informed, delivered directly to your device every month.
