About
Cleve Davis
Cleve Davis is a Shoshone-Bannock author, rancher, father, and scientist. Raised on the Fort Hall Indian Reservation, Davis writes from the intersection of memory, land, and law. With a PhD in Environmental Science and graduate work in anthropology and botany, he brings both scholarly depth and lived experience to his writing. His debut book, So Long As Game May Be Found Thereon…, tells a story few know—but none should ignore. As a direct descendant of Pohave (John Race Horse Sr.), the Bannock man at the heart of the Ward v. Race Horse Supreme Court case, Davis exposes the history of conspiracy, violence, and legal betrayal that still shapes Indian hunting rights in the American West. This book is his offering—part legal testimony, part cultural remembrance, and part wake-up call to those still fighting for a place in their own homelands. It’s written not just for Indians, but for anyone willing to see the American West through different eyes.
