on American railroads and Western Americana. Beebe also wrote for
such national magazines as American Heritage, Gourmet, Holiday,
Newsweek, Playboy, and Saturday Review. From 1960 until his death,
Beebe wrote a weekly column for the San Francisco Chronicle, "This
W#d West." Clegg was Board Chairman of the Lucius M. Beebe
Memorial Foundation after Beebe's death.
A highly civilized non-conformist, Beebe thought of himself as a
Renaissance Man and a true snob and was recognized as a legend in
his own lifetime. "All I want is the best of everything and there's very
little of that left." - Simpson's Contemporary Quotations
