Description
First printed in 1873, Life Amongst the Modocs is based on Joaquin Miller's years among the mining towns and Indian camps of northernmost California during the tumultuous 1850s. As a nature writer, Miller was among the first to capture the fierce power and sublime beauty of California’s wild landscape. He was also a maverick in his portrayal of the state’s emotional landscape, dealing as no one has before or since with themes such as loneliness and defeat, melancholy and rage, weakness and strength, joy and loyalty. Although Joaquin Miller is widely viewed as one of the “founding fathers” of the literature of the west, this new edition of his classic work proves him to be a writer of considerable power and appeal, with something fresh and vital to say to the readers of today.
