Building Your Band of Brothers

After I wrote Mansfield's Book of Manly Men and began speaking about its themes around the world, men started asking me how to find a "band of brothers." In this short companion book, I provide a practical, step-by-step guide for identifying and building a band of brothers. I believe a global men's movement is underway, and Mansfield's Book of Manly Men and Building Your Band of Brothers are helping to restore noble manhood in our time.

Most modern men walk alone. Most of them cannot name a best friend. They do not know who they would call in a crisis. They have no one around them who challenges them and makes them better. It is a plague in our time. Surveys confirm it. Medical studies confirm it. The male suicide rate confirms it. What modern men have lost is the skill of teaming with other men to help each other achieve true manhood. It is a lost art. Stephen Mansfield's Building Your Band of Brothers helps men master this art and reclaim the skills of building the team of brothers that leads to masculine success. Mansfield is the author of the internationally acclaimed Mansfield's Book of Manly Men, which has been much discussed in major media and which has formed the basis of men's events around the world. In this brief, inspiring guide, Mansfield explains the essential steps for building a noble team of men in pursuit of manly excellence. He insists that these steps are achievable by every man and that they will lead to fulfillment and fun that will last a lifetime. A wise man once said, "No man is the whole of himself; his friends are the rest of him." Stephen Mansfield believes this and is eager to help men get teamed, get whole, and get on being the best they can be."
