Reviews

Stoking the Fire not only introduces readers to neglected authors and nearly unknown writers, making a persuasive case for their significance, but it also significantly advances the critical case for the perseverance of Cherokee modes of belonging throughout the first decades of the twentieth century. Kirby Brown's tribalist history of Cherokee writing fills in conspicuous gaps in the record and gives us the opportunity to reclaim a too hastily dismissed past. --Joshua B. Nelson, author of Progressive Traditions: Identity in Cherokee Literature and Culture Stoking the Fire is a major reevaluation of Cherokee literature in the first half of the twentieth century. Kirby Brown's analysis of Lynn Riggs sets the gold standard for Riggs scholarship going forward. --Jace Weaver, author of The Red Atlantic: American Indigenes and the Making of the Modern World, 1000-1927
