Summary:

Modern man may know how to send an email, play games on his phone and moisturize occasionally, but when it comes to life’s proper skills – the ones that all dads and granddads seem to know off by heart – he is left scratching his head and feeling useless.
However, luckily help is at hand. The Manly Man’s Handbook does exactly what it says on the cover and will teach you all the essential skills you need to show off your manliness and feel a bit less rubbish. Learn practical skills such as how to fix a dripping tap, carve a Sunday roast and rugby-tackle a thief; show off your masculinity by ripping a phone book in half and winning an arm wrestle; and reveal your sensitive side by learning how to hold a baby properly and mastering the basic dance steps.
Covering all of the vital yet often overlooked skills required of the modern-day male, this man-sized selection of skills will leave you feeling strong, confident – and manly.
