Lawyer, railroad builder, expo organizer, inventor of Shredded Wheat, utopian educator, Henry D. Perky is a fascinating representative of the American entrepreneur in the wide-open Gilded Age. Jim Holechek dramatizes all the achievements and failures that befell a man who dared to pursue opportunities in some of the most important enterprises of Americana.

Paul Marx, professor emeritus of English, University of New Haven.

Great book. It's got to be made into a movie!

Frederick N. Rasmussen, reporter, The Baltimore Sun
