First printed in 1873, Life Amongst the Modocs is based
on Miller’s years among the mining towns and Indian camps of
northernmost California during the tumultuous 1850s. As a nature
writer, he 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.
