He grew up poor in Denver as one of six children with a single mother whom he adored and whose creative spirit he absorbed. After graduating from East High School, he enlisted in the Navy and spent two years in the Pacific theater during World War II. Afterward, he enrolled at the University of Colorado where he met a lovely woman from Brooklyn, New York named Sandy and they were married in 1949. Son Dan came along soon after and the young family set sail for Paris where Perry studied at the Sorbonne and found his muse as a writer. They returned in time for number two son, Peter whose birth was followed few years later by sisters Medley Ann and Eve Perry embarked on a career in journalism and along the way, developed a deep love for the history of his adopted state.He authored four books about Colorado and doors opened for him to get intrinsically involved in state and local affairs. A roller coaster of successes, failures and health issues underlined the life of a true maverick. The World Lost a Man is his story told lovingly by his son, embellished with Perry's own poetry.\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-5939853\"\u003eDan Eberhart\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Silly Goat Media\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/30\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 346\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.02lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.72d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781961181182\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1961181185\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-BIO\"\u003eBiography \u0026amp; Autobiography\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-BIO000000\"\u003eGeneral\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-POE\"\u003ePoetry\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-POE000000\"\u003eGeneral\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Silly Goat Media","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47357121462509,"sku":"9781961181182","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/files\/img_71ee9c1e-4c60-409a-b23f-67bfa6457dcd.jpg?v=1731631363","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/products\/the-world-lost-a-man-9781961181182","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
