LQ was always a labor of love supported by a handful of Lapham's friends and supporters. He was recently still coming into the office everyday at 87 and was actively editing the journal.
Lapham dropped out of Cambridge (where his advisor was CS Lewis) and went to work as a beat reporter at the SF Chronicle in the 1950s. LQ was always his dream of the the perfect magazine, and it is great that he achieved it.
The issues are evergreen. Some of my favorites are Technology, Celebrity and Swindles & Frauds.
