True Men As We Need Them
A Book of Instruction for Men in the World.
By Rev. Bernard O’Reilly, L.D.
Since the father in the home takes the place of God, this book gives the ideals of true manhood and in an easy to read and enjoyable way, helps the father reach those ideals. Unhappiness and Home Destroyers are discussed, along with their solutions. Also discussed is Paternal Authority - both in regard to Home Education as well as Public Education. There are chapters on Boyhood, Matrimony and “Obstacles to true Manliness.” Finally, to make the book complete, different occupations of men are discussed to include the Laboring Man, The Business Man, “The Toilers of the Pen”, The Statesman and The Professional Man. We have never seen a book, written for men, that so fully helps men to reach their ideals in life. Any man will be able to profit from this excellent book.
Impr, 1878. 460 page book.

Demetrius MarshJul 29, 2024, 11:44Highly recommend this book for any young man who lacks a father figure in his life. It is filled with fatherly knowledge and perspective and sensible answers from good men who have faced many afflictions commonly seen in the world today. These are trying times, boys need every help they can to be great men- this is that help. God bless.
