The August 1979 BYTE magazine issue on Lisp is a snapshot of the language in its early days.
The editorial is really interesting as it mentions Lisp was the preferred language of Gary Kildall. The editorial on Kildall and Lisp: "[...] the alternative "M-expression" form of LISP, with special characters noting relationships, is perhaps the most elegant and natural form of expression for many problems."
