Man Up!

A little hard to listen to if you are more the type to read books for entertainment but the values and principles covered in this book are priceless and should be more widely understood and practiced. I definitely recommend this to all men!

History Meets Manliness

What did you love best about The Art of Manliness - Manvotionals?

I have been following Brett McKay's blog for quite some time now. This book truly grasps the finer points of what it means to be manliness, and insight into Brett's mind of beginning AoM, by tying together numerous historical references. One will gain great value by listening, or reading, Manvotionals to be directed by some of the most manliest of men throughout times. If you are a fan of the AoM blog then I would highly recommend this as an expansion of The Library of Man Knowledge.

A great book to learn how to become a better father, husband, and all around man's man.

Phenomenal!

Mandatory for men especially in this age of gender confusion; where historical manhood is being looked down upon. This book provides insight and hope to correct modern society's spiral into destruction.

Raising the Standard of Manhood

I found this to be very insightful and introspective. It illustrates the best virtues of men throughout history. I have actually taken time to memorize many of the passages.

Solid book

History is important and learning through stories is the most efficient way to remember lessons and advice. This book covers several important masculine qualities.

They should make a book on the other manly qualities to complete the series.

A must have for any aspiring gentleman

This book is a wonderful resource on the much neglected side of the ideal gentleman, the "Gentlemanly Virtues" Without virtue, etiquette and politeness is just empty form. I wholeheartedly recommend this book to any aspiring gentleman.....
