Powers, Alfred. Redwood Country. New York: Duell, Slone and Pearce, 1949. Powers climbed Mt. Shasta. He says “With our tent fronting the snow peak, we were able to give it a lot of meditative looking one day before we climbed it, and one day afterward. It was a good aesthetics experiment-the change wrought in our appreciation. A professor ought to assign it to a graduate student sometime” (p. 160). Powers also discusses the Mt. Shasta climbing experiences of Joaquin Miller, Clarence King, and John Muir. 12. Mountaineering: 20th Century. [MS712]. http://www.siskiyous.edu/shasta/bib/B12.htm

p. 250 “The San Francisco Bulletin, with characteristic fairness gives “honor to whom honor is due” in the following: “California has not the honor to claim Mr. Miller as a citizen. His residence when at home is Oregon.”’”
p. 251 quotes the Eugene City Guard “A careful perusal of the contents proves that the poet possesses true genius and real poetical fire. He is among the poets that are born, not made, and with experience and study, Judge Miller will rank among the first poets of the age.”
p. 251 also quotes a review from another Northwest paper: “We find beautiful thoughts and splendid imagery mingled with vulgar idioms
and a total disregard of the properties of English grammar . . . the harmonies of poetry illy accord with improprieties in language, and a poet of aesthetical taste, as all poets should be, would not array heroic verse in vulgar verbiage or illiterate idiom.’”
