Synopsis

Witty, compelling, and shrewd, Mansfield’s Book of Manly Men is about resurrecting your inborn, timeless, essential, masculine self.The Western world is in a crisis of discarded honor, dubious integrity, and faux manliness. It is time to recover what we have lost. Stephen Mansfield shows us the way. Working with timeless maxims and stirring examples of manhood from ages past, Mansfield issues a trumpet call of manliness fit for our times. In Mansfield’s Book of Manly Men, you’ll see that:This book is about doing. It is about action.It is about knowing the deeds that comprise manhood and doing those deeds.Habits have to be formed, and actions have to be aligned with the grace received.“My goal in this book is simple,” Mansfield says. “I want to identify what a genuine man does?the virtues, the habits, the disciplines, the duties, the actions of true manhood?and then call men to do it.”

I used this book as as outside-reading assignment for my son and the Christian Manhood Class that I taught in our Christian school. Every man should read this book. Every young man should read this book. Every mother of a man should read this book. Stephen Mansfield uses mostly everyday manly exampl......more

Goodreads review by Lindsay on September 08, 2016

Yes, I read a manly book, which was a required category (a book written for the opposite gender) for the Tim Challies reading challenge I've been doing this year. I enjoyed it a lot. It was packed full of valiant mini biographies of great men of faith. I found many truths that will be helpful in tra......more

Goodreads review by Tere on November 22, 2021

Resumiré este libro con una frase citada ahí “La virtud es un estado de guerra, y para vivir virtuoso siempre hay que librar algún combate consigo mismo” Jean Jaques Rousseau. Es un libro de virtudes relacionadas con la hombría. Que cuestiona sobre si son éstas llevadas a cabo o cómo se puede consegu......more
