Publisher's Synopsis
Lessons for Fatherless Boys and Men is a collection of 66 practical lessons drawn from the author's personal discussions with his son. Presented in a clear, conversational style, these lessons offer timeless wisdom on critical topics such as critical thinking, independence, responsibility, relationships, personal finance, anger management, general manners and etiquette, and the principles of being a gentleman warrior.
Each lesson is concise and thought-provoking, enriched with references to philosophy, literature, science, and psychology to inspire curiosity and self-reflection. While the book doesn't cover hands-on skills like wilderness survival, changing a tire, or using power tools, it provides a strong foundation for navigating social situations, developing a personal code of conduct, and striving toward personal goals; all with the aim of cultivating the mindset of a modern gentleman warrior. This book is not only invaluable for fatherless boys and men but also serves as a meaningful resource for single parents. Its lessons can spark thoughtful conversations with children and young adults of any gender, helping to guide them on their own journey of growth and self-discovery.
