Reviews
"In a fiery account as chilling as a legal thriller, Rebecca Nagle lays bare centuries of injustice in Oklahoma and the southeastern lands from which the American government exiled her ancestors and thousands of other Indigenous peoples. By the Fire We Carry is a clear and courageous call for justice." -- Tiya MIles, author of All That She Carried and Ties That Bind "This is great storytelling, dogged reporting, and a compelling personal tale all wrapped in a book that should live for years to come." -- Timothy Egan, author of A Fever in the Heartland "This is great storytelling, dogged reporting, and a compelling personal tale all wrapped in a book that should live for years to come." -- Ijeoma Oluo, author of So You Want to Talk About Race and Mediocre "This is brilliant journalism and exceptional history. In the best tradition of social justice writing, it challenges the head, breaks the heart, and offers hope for the future." -- Philip J. Deloria, Dakota descent, author of Becoming Mary Sully "Part legal page-turner, part her own compelling family saga, and part eloquent lament for the horrific way our nation has treated Native Americans over the centuries, Rebecca Nagle's By the Fire We Carry has also given us something exceedingly rare--a story about Native Americans in the Supreme Court in which the good guys actually win." -- Adam Cohen, author of Supreme Inequality "Spanning several centuries and covering topics ranging from the rights of impoverished Native criminal defendants to the Indian law jurisprudence of the United States Supreme Court, By the Fire We Carry is essential reading for the American public." -- Sarah Deer, JD; enrolled citizen, Muscogee (Creek) Nation; author of The Beginning and End of Rape "With a veteran storyteller's talent and the easy first-person narration of a family memoirist, Nagle shows how the tragic political legacy tribes have been given continues to disrupt Native communities today." -- Kevin K. Washburn, dean, University of Iowa College of Law; citizen of the Chickasaw Nation; former assistant secretary for Indian Affairs "I cannot think of a book that more powerfully illustrates that the past is never dead. By the Fire We Carry is a triumph." -- Claudio Saunt, author of Unworthy Republic "By The Fire We Carry is history come alive, an intelligent and personal story about justice. Rebecca Nagle is at her best as a deft journalist and storyteller." -- Nick Estes, author of Our History Is the Future

Synopsis
"No part of the judiciary exposes the chasm between American ideals and institutional practice like federal Indian law. In By the Fire We Carry , Nagle, a Cherokee journalist, turns a case most Americans haven't heard of into a legal thriller." -- New York Times Book Review NATIONAL BESTSELLER The New Yorker 's Best Books of 2024 - Publishers Weekly Top 10 Book of the Year - NPR 2024 "Books We Loved" Pick - Esquire Best Book of the Year - Kirkus Reviews Best Nonfiction of 2024 - Winner of the J. Anthony Lukas Book Prize - Finalist for the National Book Critics Circle John Leonard First Book Prize An "impeccably researched" ( Washington Post ) work of reportage and American history that braids the story of the forced removal of Native Americans onto treaty lands in the nation's earliest days, and a small-town murder in the 1990s that led to a Supreme Court ruling reaffirming Native rights to that land more than a century later. Before 2020, American Indian reservations made up roughly 55 million acres of land in the United States. Nearly 200 million acres are reserved for National Forests--in the emergence of this great nation, our government set aside more land for trees than for Indigenous peoples. In the 1830s Muscogee people were rounded up by the US military at gunpoint and forced into exile halfway across the continent. At the time, they were promised this new land would be theirs for as long as the grass grew and the waters ran. But that promise was not kept. When Oklahoma was created on top of Muscogee land, the new state claimed their reservation no longer existed. Over a century later, a Muscogee citizen was sentenced to death for murdering another Muscogee citizen on tribal land. His defense attorneys argued the murder occurred on the reservation of his tribe, and therefore Oklahoma didn't have the jurisdiction to execute him. Oklahoma asserted that the reservation no longer existed. In the summer of 2020, the Supreme Court settled the dispute. Its ruling that would ultimately underpin multiple reservations covering almost half the land in Oklahoma, including Nagle's own Cherokee Nation. Here Rebecca Nagle recounts the generations-long fight for tribal land and sovereignty in eastern Oklahoma. By chronicling both the contemporary legal battle and historic acts of Indigenous resistance, By the Fire We Carry stands as a landmark work of American history. The story it tells exposes both the wrongs that our nation has committed and the Native-led battle for justice that has shaped our country., "No part of the judiciary exposes the chasm between American ideals and institutional practice like federal Indian law.
