The Best American Magazine Writing 2007 is a non-fiction book published by Columbia University Press, and edited by the American Society of Magazine Editors. It features recognized high-quality journalism pieces from the previous year. The book includes an account by journalist William Langewiesche of Vanity Fair about a controversial United States military operation in Iraq, an investigative journalism article for Rolling Stone by Janet Reitman, a piece published in Esquire by C.J. Chivers about the Beslan school hostage crisis, and an article by Christopher Hitchens about survivors of Agent Orange.

The book received a positive reception, and a review in Publishers Weekly commented, "All of the essays ... exhibit a timeless prose in the midst of meeting deadlines. But many also resonate with a special sense of timeliness".[1] A review in The Irish Times concluded, "the best in this volume stands with the best anywhere, essays with the compulsive readability of a good novel, but the immediacy and moral power of good journalism."[2] The Best American Magazine Writing 2007 also received a positive review from The Independent and The Daily Yomiuri praised the readability and organization of the work.[3]
