Just a Berkshire Kid is a collection of memories of my life growing up in the Berkshire Mountains of Massachusetts. I believe that the opportunities to be involved in the Arts and the interesting and colorful people that I was able to meet and interact with while growing up were influenced by my surroundings. In this book, I chronicle my musical and theatrical evolution from student to professional musician touring with Legendary Folk artist, Arlo Guthrie, and everything in between.

More Stories of a Berkshire Kid is the follow-up effort by Terry A La Berry after his initial offering of Just A Berkshire Kid. This book continues the chronicling of Terry's career as the drummer for Arlo Guthrie's band since 1975, and his alternate career of leading his own band as a children's singer/songwriter. In More Stories of a Berkshire Kid, Terry delves deeper into his memories of growing up and enjoying the benefits of being a working musician living in the Berkshires of Massachusetts.

Daddy on the run! When John Gannon turned up on her brother-in-law's doorstep one cold, stormy night there was nothing Dora could do but let him in. It wasn't so much his devastating charm and slow, sexy smile that convinced her she should help a man clearly on the run, but the adorable little girl in his arms. But, even though Gannon was long on charm and short on explanation, Dora believed his story enough to help him. It was obvious that whatever else Gannon was, he was a devoted father, and would do anything to keep little Sophie safe. Too bad the only thing keeping Dora safe from Gannon was his misconception that she was Richard's wife.

Jakes Boy continues the story from 1936 to 1945 in post-war Britain and follows the trials and tribulation of Jacobs son, Patrick, who has returned from the war a decorated RAF airman who took part in the famous Dam Busters Raid (aka Operation Chastise). With Jakes demise, the story picks up with Patrick, following his trials and tribulations in a much-changed post-war world. Patrick meets by chance Jakes daughter, Ruth, who unbeknownst to them is his half-sister. The two form a purely platonic long-distance alliance, but each can feel the pull of something stronger despite their widely differing social backgrounds.
