We’re excited to announce the release of The Art of Manliness Collection Boxed Set. Our publisher has taken our two books, The Art of Manliness: Classic Skills and Manners for the Modern Man and Manvotionals: Timeless Wisdom and Advice on Living the 7 Manly Virtues, put them in a handsome-looking cigar box along with some coasters bearing manly iconography and quotes to create a virile boxed book collection for the ages.

The Art of Manliness Collection Boxed Set has almost everything you need for an evening of manful pondering. Just open up the box, pick out a coaster to place your scotch tumbler (or craft soda bottle) on, pick up a book, and begin reading it whilst sitting in your leather chair.

Check out the unboxing of The Art of Manliness Collection Boxed Set below:

The Art of Manliness Collection Boxed Set is the perfect gift for graduation or Father’s Day. Or give it to yourself for being so awesomely manly. This box o’ manliness releases on March 30th (Amazon says May 2. Ignore). The collection is only $19.79! Amazingly, it’s actually more expensive to buy both books separately. Plus, you’re getting the box and some awesome coasters, too!

Preorder a set today so it arrives at your door by March 30. This is a limited edition collection, so order soon before supplies run out.
