"South Wind Rising" is a deep, rich portrait of a boy coming of age in a South graced with the power of nature but troubled by lurking dangers. Bassett's forthright narrative is direct and compelling, and Barsh Roberts's sexual education is by turns funny, sweet, moving, and filled with surprises. - Valerie Sayers, novelist and Professor of English, Notre Dame University
South Wind Rising Frederick W Bassett 9780984621620 Books
Fred has written an outstanding book about growing up in rural Alabama during the time of his years there as a boy. His description of the geographic features and the people is reasonably accurate as I too remember them. Many of the areas he wrote about still exist but many of the people are now part of history of course. The characters portrayed are done so that a reader familiar with the area can almost apply a name of a person they knew who was so similar that the character seems real. The book provides anyone who did not grow up in such an area insight into the time and customs that influenced all of us from that region of the country.Product details

South Wind Rising Frederick W Bassett 9780984621620 Books Reviews
If "South Wind Rising" is any indication, we are in for many more great books by a new name to the literary scene, Frederick W. Bassett.
For a first time effort, this is exceptional--for a writer of any degree of experience, this book would be exceptional. For it to come from a first-time author it is especially remarkable and holds out the hope/promise of many more to come. Let's hope he is as prolific as he writes.
"South Wind Rising" is a coming of age story in a more simple time, but the trials, tribulation, angst, hope and wonder of that terrible yet wonderful time of change is effectively captured in this book...as much here as in any book you will read for a long time.
Loving told, beautifully written. These characters will stay with you a long time---and in each of them, you will find a bit of yourself.
