Selections from... [cover title] Selections From Joaquin Miller's Poems arranged and copyrighted 1945, 1962, by Juanita Joaquina Miller 3152 Joaquin Miller Road Oakland 2, California

Miller, Joaquin [aka Cincinnatus Heine Miller]

Oakland: Tooley-Towne, Printers, for arranger/copyrighter, [1962]. Hardcover. 69p., clay-coated paperstock throughout with inserted b&w photos (mostly of Juanita), 9x6.4 inch hardbound in clothbacked paper over boards titled with pasted cover label. Mild edgewear, a very good copy. A young Miller adventured; see "With Walker in Nicaragua;" he gold-mined and fought fools in the States, before settling down into micro-celebrity (Ina Coolbrith suggested the pen-name). Several photos show the aged poet, but rather more show his daughter in costume posing as plump Spring-in-California, and the other seasons: the images are as silly as they sound, she's pictured wafting flowers and in 3 of the 4 seasons she is standing on one foot.
