Kirkus Discoveries Newsletter Features an iUniverse Author in June
Bloomington, IN, June 23, 2008 --(PR.com)-- iUniverse title, The Court-Martial of Charlie Newell, by Gerard Shirar, was listed among the Kirkus Discoveries best reviews of June. iUniverse, the leading book marketing, editorial services, and supported self-publishing company, has consistently published titles the Kirkus Discoveries e-newsletter has featured as compelling reads.

In this historical novel, a religious African-American man named Charlie Newell registers for the draft as a conscientious objector during World War I and quickly becomes caught up in the racism and prejudice of the United States Army.

“Shirar, an attorney and 20-year veteran of the U.S. Army, stitches together the story of a similar court-martial that took place in 1918 with other racially motivated injustices at that time … the book is a rewarding and engrossing read,” said the reviewer.

The Kirkus Discoveries monthly e-newsletter is sent to a targeted base of subscribers, including agents, editors, librarians, and individuals looking to acquire the print and film rights to books and unpublished manuscripts. Books reviewed by Kirkus Discoveries can be traditionally published, self-published, published via print-on-demand technology, or not previously published at all.
