このコンテンツについて
The final book from esteemed Berkeley historian Arthur Quinn, Hell With the Fire Out is both a complex chronicle of a forgotten chapter in American Indian history and a vivid detailing of human foible, folly, and failure. With a novelistic flair, Quinn outlines the sad inevitability of America's westward expansion in its post-Civil War era. Wrangling all the inherent contradictions—Quaker Peace Policy vs Grant and Sherman's War Department; inter- and inner-tribal conflicts; the opposing attitudes of the region's White settlers—Quinn gives us a battle story not merely between nations and governments, but within the hearts of the very individuals at its center.

"A vivid re-creation of an often overlooked episode in the Indian Wars. The Modoc War, fought in 1869-72, has largely been regarded as a sideshow in light of other, more famous campaigns, such as those against Crazy Horse and Cochise. Berkeley scholar Quinn, the author of several volumes of history (A New World, 1994, etc.), makes a solid case for why the war—really a series of skirmishes, some of them terribly bloody, on the Oregon-California border—should have a more central place in our historical canon."
Kirkus
"Quinn (The Rivals) presents a balanced treatment of this unhappy episode, but not one without dramatic flair. His writing is compelling and vivid... Broad in scope, the book covers the earlier history of the Modocs, the war, the execution of tribal leaders and the tribe's ultimate fate. It is sure to place readers—avid for a rare look at a forgotten war—on the edge of their seats." Publishers Weekly
