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. Rather edgeworn; this was Joseph Knowland's copy and has his holograph signature on the front free endpaper; see pp.60-61 for mentions of Knowland (these ticked in pencil). A young Joaquin Miller went adventuring, 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 and balanced on one foot posing as Spring in California; one foot again as two of the other three seasons - these images are as silly as they sound.
