I have been given the amazing opportunity by Hachette Book Group to give out five copies of The Man’s Book: The Essential Guide for the Modern Man by Thomas Fink. With Father’s Day coming up in a matter of weeks, The Man’s Book would make a perfect gift for a father or husband. Written in a humorous style, The Man’s Book will tell the man in your life exactly what it means to be a modern man.

Being modern and manly in today’s world isn’t always easy.

Do you know how to tie a bow-tie, mix a martini, or make a potato gun?

Do you know when to get married and how to break up, or the difference between a bock beer and a bitter?

Do you know which urinal to choose or how to start a fire with a Coke can?

The answers to every man’s burning questions are within these pages, from the morning wet shave to the whiskey night-cap, from hunting deer with a .30-06 to wooing women like 007. At a time when the sexes are muddled and masculinity is marginalized, THE MAN’S BOOKunabashedlycelebrates maleness. Organized by subject in a man-logical way, it’s the go-to guide for anyone with a Y chromosome.

So now… GIVEAWAY!

   I’d like to win this for my husband, who is the manliest man alive, but even perfect men deserve a good book to read, right?

    My husband’s favourite gift is time with his family, so we’re throwing him an outdoor BBQ so he can relax and spend time with us without doing a thing!

    First of all, I’d love to win this for my husband for Father’s Day!He already knows how to make a potato gun, but he doesn’t know how to tie a bowtie!

    Second, my husband would probably love a day of fishing for Father’s Day. He hasn’t had much time to enjoy the sport since we had a baby/moved/started renovating the new house. He would love a day to just sit on the water in silence!
