"Howdy, Honey, Honey" is a pricy treasure because of the fine photographs by Miner, who was an instructor at the Hampton Institute. He also illustrated "Southland Melodies," by Ben King (also very scarce) and other books.

A collection of Miner's photographs are available in a very fine quarto art edition, "Face of an Island" (St. Helena, Carolina Coast), by historian Edith Dabbs. The original was published in 1970 (rare book dealers' price about $500), but the 2004 reprint is available for 65 British pounds from Gazelle Book Services, UK.
