I was introduced to this book by my brother. It is a wonderful collection of basic knowledge that every young man (and lady) should know. It has great father/son projects like building a treehouse or a go cart but also has a great way of teaching kids all about the fun stuff kids can do. It's a great read for anyone at any age.

Bought this for my boyfriends' younger brother and he loves it! Had it sitting around the house before gifting it to him and 3 other gentlemen (adults) looked in over and all wanted a copy. Ordered extras on my next purchase to give out as Christmas gifts! Great gift for the man in your life, especially one with sons!!!

This is a great book for anyone who has young and adventurous boys over the age of 5 or 6. My kids have tried the knot making, bow and arrow making, setting traps, etc. Well priced here compared to other bookstores and wholesale stores.

After reading other reviews I decided to purchase this book. I opened it and didn't put it down for a couple of hours. The information in this book is great. Practical as well as entertaining. Great for passing on those things we did as kids but forgot how to do or "misplaced" the memory of how to do those fun, inexpensive adventures.

This book is awesome! I enjoyed it so much that I bought it for all the men and boys in my immediate family. So many things that all boys and men should know and should teach their sons, nephews, and grandsons. If there are some things that you never learned about being a boy, this is the book for you. It is not only nostalgic but also very informative and worth every penny I paid for it.

I actually purchased this book as a gift for a young cousin. I loved this book from every aspect, just the fact that it gets kids up off the couch a bit and back into the backyard. Bug, knots, snakes, and all sorts of little boy interests. A great book to get our internet generation unplugged for a while

I ordered this book for a present and when it got here I almost kept it for myself it is so cool! It is full of information! I ordered the first copy for my 13 year old nephew, and recently ordered 2 more copies, one for my husband and one for my father-in-law. It is excellent for all ages!
