Saints for Men: Hard-Won Wisdom from the Toughest Men Who Ever Lived (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798185798331)

Two thousand years of men have stood exactly where you are standing. This book hands you what they learned.

Saints for Men is a plain-spoken, man-to-man guide to the toughest men who ever lived. Not the plaster-statue version. The real ones: soldiers and workers, men who fought their tempers and their appetites, men who failed badly and came back, men who led, fathered, and finished well. Each short chapter takes one real question a man actually wrestles with and puts a man who lived it right in front of you.

It is built around the questions that keep a man up at night: who am I supposed to be, what do I do with my anger, how do I provide without losing my soul, how do I break this habit, can I start over after I blew it up, how do I lead, how do I father, where do I find courage, why am I so alone, can a strong man kneel, what do I do when my body fails, and what am I leaving behind.

Around seventy of them, from the well known to the ones you have never heard of, each one honest, practical, and aimed at your actual life. Read it straight through, or go to your fight and find the man who already won it.

Grit, guts, and hard-won wisdom, handed back man to man.
