- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This is the most excellent manners book, especially for a coming of age type of read, I'd recommend it for anyone who strives to become a good person, with strength, good manners and none of that macho nonsense that other "man-books" have all over them. Overall an excellent, clean lecture that I'd recommend. This book is for anyone who wants to chase virtue and become dependable.
