Keith Niles Corman’s critically acclaimed “Scourged Souls” receives positive reviews from multiple book review publications

Kristy Elizabeth of the Manhattan Book Review rated the book a full five out of five stars. To quote her, she says: “‘Scourged Souls’ is nothing short of a masterpiece. It takes the reader back in time to the American Civil War. What I really enjoyed about this book is that it gives the reader the perspective of both sides of the war, from the viewpoints of both Union and Confederate soldiers, their families, and their friends. ‘Scourged Souls’ is a book that I feel should be read in conjunction with any school curriculum on the Civil War.”

The San Francisco Book Review and the Seattle Book Review rated the book 4/5 stars and 4.5/5 stars respectively, saying that: “The denouement of long lead-ups to conflict is terrifying and graphic. And the soul-scarring aftermath of war is searingly well rendered. Despite the technical problems, I am enriched by this reading.” –The San Francisco Book Review

“In an enigmatic twist of fate, these three, disparate families cross the paths with one another in the most unexpected ways.” -Jennifer Padgett of the Seattle Book Review

Rachel Dehning of the Tulsa Book Review also rated the book 5/5 stars. “Corman introduces a freed slave that is able to earn his freedom from his master. This character was interesting to read about because his freed status made him more a rarity in the South at the time. Corman is a talented writer who should be on everyone’s lists, especially those who enjoy a good war story.”

According to the Pacific Book Review, the book is “a powerful and well written work that everyone should read. While a fairly quick novel to read, it is completely engrossing and engaging throughout. A wonderful cast of characters within each story makes this book feel personal and real, and does an amazing job of relaying the way events like the Civil War shaped the lives of so many away from the battlefields as well.

About the Author
 
Keith resides in Cincinnati, Ohio with his wife Martha. A retired public servant after 30 years, Keith now maintains business as an Industrial Development Consultant. Always holding a keen passion in history, Keith feels to appreciate history generally is to look at it in the everyday life of the era. Holding to that philosophy, “The grass was green and the sky was blue, as it is today”, Keith wanted to portray “Scourged Souls” in that aspect. Set during the American Civil War.
