Howard Denson writes as the Wild-Eyed Moderate as he cuts through the hysteria of the right and the frenzy of the left. GUNFIGHT WITH A WILD-EYED MODERATE is a collection of his essays, columns, and sketches. They focus upon the peculiar, as when a gorilla in a zoo is transfixed by the sight of a man in a gorilla suit making a commercial, to the serious, with a look back at Socrates' execution. Several essays provide feedback to aspiring writers who may be having trouble with dialogue, dialect, punctuation, point of view, etc. One essay is Encountering Ray Bradbury. Other essays explore racial relations, the consequences of the bombings in Birmingham, and America's debt to its immigrants.
