Joaquin Miller is not listed in the index but James quotes from Miller in his chapter on Edwin Markham as follows: “’Consider what Markham put aside, as putting aside a crown, to take his place with the poor and the despised. Wealth (enough, at least), books and a great knowledge of books, high honors and the esteem of great and good men; the love of men and the idolatry of women. We scribes use to call him “Jove” in his stately young prime when speaking of him, so majestic was his presence. Yet he put it all by and became a blacksmith, a mighty sledge in his strong right hand to batter down the prison doors, and break the chains of blind men in prison grinding at a mill.’” There may be other references.
