Carl Wernicke, opinion editor of the Pensacola News Journal says, "J. Earle Bowden has distilled the history of Northwest Florida that is his first love into the kind of fiction that is history's first cousin. Good historical fiction tells more about the people and their lives than any academic history. This volume is a shot of straight Chipola River Valley history. Drink deep."
"Bowden's a Southern writer with Faulknerian style," says Pensacola writer Seldon Pierce. "He has mastered the short story and keeps the reader spellbound as he sketches stories of the Real South, using true-to-life happenings that he fictionalizes so perfectly." Pierce says, "You are there, reliving the 1930s and forties that Bowden remembers so brilliantly and so clearly. His mastery of the language of the thirties is on target. I recommend this master craftsman's novel Look and Tremble, Embrace an Autumnal Heart and When You Reach September. His Chipola Moon Rising really shines."
