The Modern Man's Guide to Life

Rating:
Summary: A must have for male, high school graduates.
Review: I received this book for my high school graduation and read it cover to cover. It has practical knowledge that is easy to read. "The Guide" talks about things my parents never had the never to discuss with me. I hope they go into print soon because many men could use what its got.

Summary: I hope this goes to print soon with additions!
Review: Like some readers here I too got this book for high school graduation 9 years ago. The book is written in a straight-forward manner and easy to read. I enjoy reading and re-reading certain passages. In fact I use it as a reference to most anything. The only downside I can think of is it's datedness with some of the more technical aspects particularly with respect to surviving in the outdoors. Either way I hope it goes back to print.

Summary: Where 'Worst Case Scenarios' Got All Their Best Stuff!
Review: One of my all-time favorites for giving at graduation, and a terrible shame it is out of print. Written with a dry sense of humor that promotes reading the book from cover to cover the first time, it becomes a fantastic reference for everything from manners to stain removal to "flying an airplane if the pilot dies". The Boy Scout Handbook for the 1990's and beyond. Absolutely indispensable.

Summary: Where 'Worst Case Scenarios' Got All Their Best Stuff!
Review: What to Do If the Pilot Dies, How to Hop a Freight, all that and more is in this great classic. I bought a copy of this book when it first came out, and I've bought at least one copy (one way or another) every year since because my friends keep stealing mine. The tech stuff is dated, but the rest is golden. I'm ordering another copy now, probably the 20th one. Maybe someday this book will be the basis for some new Guy religion. I'm already a believer!
