What if the story you were taught wasn't the whole story?
Captain Jack & The Original Renegades is a powerful work of historical fiction rooted in real events, Indigenous memory, and the unfinished truths of the Modoc War. Set in the volcanic landscapes of the Klamath Basin, this gripping novel follows Kintpuash-known to history as Captain Jack-and the Modoc people as they face displacement, broken treaties, and the slow violence of assimilation. Drawing from archival records, oral tradition, and land-based memory, H.L. Delaney reconstructs a story long distorted by official accounts and retells it from where it never left... the ground itself. Through alternating timelines, a modern father and son walk the same land where history unfolded, confronting what was recorded... and what was buried. As past and present collide, the meaning of renegade is reclaimed-not as rebellion, but as return. This is not just a story of war.

It is a story of resistance, identity, survival, and memory carried forward. Perfect for readers of Indigenous literature, historical fiction, and decolonized narratives, Captain Jack & The Original Renegades challenges dominant histories and invites readers to witness a truth that was never meant to disappear. The land remembers. This book listens.
