About the Book:
There's a lot a guy needs to know as he grows up and makes his way in the world. And a lot of it, he wouldn't necessarily want to have to ask about because then, well, people would know he didn't know what he was doing! For all the guys out there who want to have it all together, Jonathan Catherman offers this collection of one hundred step-by-step instructions on almost everything a guy needs to know, including how to
- wear cologne correctly
- manage a credit card
- talk to a girl
- plan a date
- write a resume
- ask for a reference
- clean a bathroom
- throw a football
- change a tire
- behave during a traffic stop
- fold a shirt
- tie a tie
- grill a steak
- clear a sink drain
- find a stud in a wall
In fact, if it's in here, it's an important skill or character trait practiced by capable and confident men. With great illustrations and a supporting website, this all-in-one reference tool for young men in the making is the perfect gift for birthdays, graduations, or any occasion.

My Review:
 This is a great book especially for those boys that don't have a father figure in their life to teach them such things. I would even go as far to say that this is also a good book for girls as well. Learning how to change a flat tire or check the oil are much needed skills in the world and both genders should know how to do these skills. My children know how to do many of the skills listed in the book but this manual is a good book to have around for a reminder course as well.

 The Manual to Manhood, not only covers "manly" type things but also things boys need to learn, especially if they plan to live on their own someday. Such things as making pancakes, grilling a steak, writing a resume, etc. A great book to help with everyday tasks is a great help in today's society. This book is brilliant and we need one for girls! 

**Disclosure** This book was sent to me free of charge for my honest review from Revell.
