Excerpt from A Rare First Edition Being the Story of Joaquin Miller's Pacific Poems (1871): Of Which Only Two Copies Are at Present Known Collectors of first editions of American authors have often had their curiosity piqued by the postscript appended by Joaquin Miller to his Songs of the Sierras, London, 1871. This cryptic statement read: "The foregoing is the preface to a thin book printed here last winter, but not published further than to send less than half-a-dozen copies to the press. As the reader sometimes is curious to know the origin of a new book, and this includes almost all that could be sought, I let it stand."
