This book should be a mandatory textbook for every man out there. I am a graduate student and I see these 23/24 old guys running around clueless, acting like a 12 yr old on Facebook, making fools out of themselves just to fit in. And I’ll admit that I was one of them too until recently when I started working on myself. This book has really helped me guide myself in the direction I want to go, the man I want to be.
Thanks a lot for taking the time to write it and keep up the good work. Would love to meet you and Kate one day.

@ Jeff, I think there’s already an international mens day in November.

We need some sort of…..power tool appreciation day or something, earlier in the year.

You need to find a new publisher for the next book. These people are unbelievable. Do you know how many more you could have sold for X-Mas?! I would have bought 5 or 6 more, and I imagine there are many other loyal readers of this website in the same boat. Now, well, I suppose it’s “Happy Man Day” or something… You should find an obscure, manly holiday to give your readers and excuse to buy out the next run.

I love this book too! I’m a 6th grade teacher and there are many appropriate things for the boys in my class to learn. For the past couple weeks I’ve been reading excerpts from it to my boys and they love learning new things. How to be a proper young man! They keep asking me whats new on the website everyday. It’s so great to see and be a part of this. Thanks!! Suggestion for the future: The Art of Being a Young Man…I’d buy a copy every year for my students!

I love this book. Hands down the best Christmas gift I got. (What other book teaches you things like how to land a plane in an emergency?) Have been reading voraciously every night before bed. Keep up the great work!

Thanks for the support, fellas. I think I may need to put “Herr Doktor Approved” on the cover of the next print run. Dominick, I’m glad we could dry your eyes.

@Cody-
About 1/3 of the book is brand new stuff. And the old stuff has been edited and I hope improved. And I think the design, illustrations, and portability of the book make it a great buy. But hey, I’m kind of biased.

Does the book contain more than what is available on the site? I would like the book either way, but with my current money situation, I can only justify buying it if it contains new information.
