BOOKS BY THE AUTHOR
STANDOFF
Standing Rock, the Bundy Movement, and the American Story of Sacred Lands
The Bundy takeover of Oregon's Malheur Wildlife Refuge and the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe's standoff against an oil pipeline in North Dakota are two sides of the same story that created America and its deep-rooted cultural conflicts. Through a compelling comparison of conflicting beliefs and legal systems, Keeler explores whether the West has really been won—and for whom.
"Eye-opening and compelling . . . required reading for those who would call this land home."

Native Voices Speak for the Bears Ears
In support of tribal efforts to protect the Bears Ears, Native writers bear testimony to the fragile and essential nature of this sacred landscape in America’s remote red rock country. Through poem and essay, these often-ignored voices explore the ways many native people derive tradition, sustenance, and cultural history from the Bears Ears.
"Encompassing wisdom and grace, Edge of Morning is a finessed articulation of respect and the simplicity of being human."
