Uniformly Undeserved

by P. Scott Corbett

Book / Historical Fiction

December 05, 2022

30 days reads: 24

Summary
Chapters

I am pleased to announce that a Korean translation of my book "Uniformly Undeserved" was recently published on November 15th in South Korea. "Uniformly Undeserved" narrates the adventures of the Takara and Jahana families as the family patriarchs—Morio and Yo—make their way from Okinawa via Hawai’i to Santa Monica, California. Corbett’s style of storytelling brings the struggles, frustrations, and disillusionments with interpretations of the U.S. Constitution experienced by Japanese immigrants to readers in a manner that is not exacting. Readers may not be familiar with U.S. efforts to stymie the flow of immigrants through legislation, violence, and exclusionary practices promulgated by citizens, making Uniformly an important means of digging deeper into the American psyche. Eiji, Saburo, and Aimi find that although they are native-born and are as American as apple pie and cowboys, WWII creates a hostile environment forcing them into unanticipated circumstances.

Under Siege

Summary
Chapters

This is an account of a famous standoff - a siege - in 1215 in which a group of knights headed by Sir William d'Albini occupied a castle in the southeast of England to prevent the notorious King John from regaining the capital, London. Set during the months that followed the signing, and rejection, of the Magna Carta, it tells the story of the weapons and tactics used that prolonged the siege. This, the first chapter, tells how Albini and his knights took hold and occupied the keep, foraged for supplies and settled inside the fortress before the king arrived two days later. This historical account, though fictional, is loosely based on medieval historian Marc Morris's award-winning presentation of the TV series called 'Castle' about the history of English castles and the 2nd episode about the siege.
