Listen Up is not a traditional memoir. It is a book of stories: some powerful and some humorous. These stories are about West Point, playing lacrosse, living in Europe just after WWII, flying, combat, the Pentagon, being on camera, teaching, leading, fundraising and more. For example, born into a military family, Perry Smith witnessed, at age six, the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7th, 1941. He was in the back of an Army truck on the way to Sunday School on that fateful morning. Open this book and enjoy some stories from a long, eventful life.
