We review the observational properties of the class of young neutron stars
known as "anomalous X-ray pulsars," emphasizing the tremendous progress that
has been made in recent years, and explain why these objects, like the "soft
gamma repeaters," are today thought to be young, isolated, ultrahigh magnetic
field neutron stars, or "magnetars."
