He wrote his first book in 1928 and it was called, "Walls of Jericho". The book was about treating the upper and lower classes of Harlem equally. In 1932 he wrote, "The Conjure Man Dies". It was the first detective novel with all black characters. Besides his novels, he also wrote short stories like "City of Refuge" and "Vestiges". The most important thing out of Fisher's writing was how he wrote about black people in a way no one had before. He wrote about the uniqueness of black people and how they are just people.
