Book synopsis

Excerpt from So Here Then Is a Little Journey to the Home of Joaquin Miller: Also a Study of the Man and His Work He wrote the greatest poem ever written by an American: He lives at Oakland, "on the Hights," and his name is Joaquin Miller. We took the street car to the end of the line, and the conductor pointed to the road that led up the hill. "Take that road and sail on," he said, and smiled in a way that indicated he had sprung the allusion before and was pleased with it. We followed the road up the hillside. The day was one of God's own, done by hand, just to show what He could do. The sun was warm and bright; a gentle breeze, cool and refreshing, blew in with messages from the sea. The road wound around the hill, and led upward by a gentle rise - back and forth, around and back, and soon we saw the roadway over which we had passed, a hundred feet below, with gardens between. Gardens everywhere! Gardens lined off with boxwood and fenced by nodding roses. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
