Each year there are more single-parent boys who do not have the guidance and wisdom of a steady dad or even a willing and appropriate male role model. They are left with the negative, inappropriate, or outlandish ones seen in the media.
Inside are the chronicles of 26 authors’ a-ha moments, their turning points, revelations, and insights on their journeys to manhood. These moments are psychological, sociological, professional, or spiritual, and they will be inspiring and educational. These men are of all races and ages and from all over the US and Canada.
Men like these extraordinary, unsung heroes often live and die without the opportunity to tell their stories. Their journeys, successes, and setbacks are just as inspiring as the more famous ones and deserve to be told. The collective wisdom here is priceless for a practical and achievable understanding of what it means to be a man.
Be prepared to laugh, cry, and experience triumph in their journeys.
Filling a Void
Dr. Newhouse has filled a void that is often found in the lives of fatherless young boys--young men who lack a mentor to guide them through this puzzle called life. What makes this book special is that the contributors are not famous men, but everyday people who have been able to overcome various obstacles that provided them with "aha" moments--moments that provided valuable lessons on the road to personal and professional success. By sharing these aha moments, Dr. Newhouse provides a means to enable a young man today, to realize his true self worth and realize that, while not easy, they can overcome what life throws at them.
