Summary

Nationally best-selling author (The Tyranny of Big Tech), constitutional lawyer, and U.S. senator for the state of Missouri argues that the character of men and the male virtue that goes along with it is a necessary ingredient to a functioning society and a healthy, free republic.

A free society that despises manhood will not remain free.

The American Founders believed that a republic depends on certain masculine virtues. Senator Josh Hawley thinks they were right. In a bold new book, he calls on American men to stand up and embrace their God-given responsibility as husbands, fathers, and citizens.

No republic has ever survived without men of character to defend what is just and true. Starting with the wisdom of the ancients, from the Greek and Roman philosophers to Jesus of Nazareth, and drawing on the lessons of American history, Hawley identifies the defining strengths of men, including responsibility, bravery, fidelity, and leadership.

As Theodore Roosevelt declared, the “very existence of the state depends on the character of its citizens…. I am for business. But I am for manhood first.” Hawley shows why the foolhardy assault on masculinity in education, the media, the workplace, and every level of government is an assault on freedom itself.

Practical, down to earth, and urgent, Manhood: The Masculine Virtues America Needs is required listening for every American patriot.

The best approach to the meaning of work that I’ve see

In his book, Manhood, Josh lays out the case for the meaning of work in a powerful and yet simple way.

Read reviews of people who’ve ACTUALLY read the book.

It’s saddening that most reviews I’ve read on either Goodreads or the Guardian has largely focused on one thing - ad hominem attacks (and I can tell most haven’t actually read the book).

Please evaluate a book based on words written on the page, not what your opinions are on the political leaning of the author. Feel free to criticise that elsewhere. This is a place for book reviews. Not a Buzzfeed comment section.

The book is a guide on how to be a loving husband, father, builder, warrior, priest and king - through a biblical lens.

It is a cutting, surgical piece on the status on ‘masculinity’ in the modern day. What does it mean to be a ‘man’? Whether or not you agree with him, it’s a (rare) perspective worth hearing.

The book focuses on themes of responsibility, meaning and sacrifice. To not focus on oneself but on the service of others. To eliminate ego and narcissism. To provide and protect others. To grow up and become a dependable individual.

Judging the book purely on its merit - I would recommend it.

THE recipe for a better world.

I can see why people leave bad reviews on this book, it challenges the ego of anyone who really dives into it. It's provoking in a good way. Personally I've been searching for meaning and studied philosophy, religions and science over the last decade. This book is a tipping point for me. Finally I understand the fallacies of our self oriented society.
Loads of gratitude to the author, this book is going to shape the rest of my life and the lives of those around me.
