Download or read book A Gentleman s Code written by and published by . This book was released on 1984 with total page 55 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A book of quotations is a treasure house of wit and wisdom, not to be plundered all at once, but to be visited again and again, each individual gem to be taken up, examined and admired. It is also good advice not only to remember the quotations for their intrinsic value but also to try and put them into practice. This selection deals with only one topic -- the Gentleman. (It need hardly be said that all his aims and ideals apply equally to the Lady or Gentlewoman). It is a topic which I believe can never be exhausted. I have tried to make this selection as comprehensive as possible and I present it so that the writers, poets and philosophers of yesterday and today may speak to you. If reading this book gives you as much pleasure as preparing it has given me, I shall be more than rewarded. -- Taken from the Preface.

Download or read book The Men s Code of Honor written by Dan Stradford and published by . This book was released on 2012-02-01 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Men's Code of Honor touches a raw nerve in all males as it compels them to answer the ultimate question: Do they know how to "act like a man"? Drawing from male codes of conduct through history, this book is, as one young man put it, "everything a man knows he should be, looking deep into our own minds to find what makes us men, and if need be, how we can correct ourselves to be that man inside." Writer Dan Stradford opens by telling how a friend's son "asked me something about the way men treat women. I told him that an unspoken code exists among men that we all tend to subscribe to and this guides how we treat women. His father nodded in agreement. This brief incident passed but the moment stayed with me. Why is it, I wondered, that this 'code' is unspoken? Why hasn't anyone written it down?" And so began a five-year quest into the history of men's codes of conduct. Searching through military codes, athletic codes, cowboy codes, and many others, Stradford found 66 rules of conduct that had withstood the test of time - the essence of the unwritten code of honor amongst men. Each chapter covers a different sector - including Integrity, Duty, Work, Courage, Women, Children, and Family. To bring the points home, Stradford opens each with a raw story from his own life, rising from the poverty of St. Louis slums without a father to guide him. The Men's Code of Honor is a manual for women, too, as it lays bare the core drives, motives, and duties of men and how to measure the integrity and reliability of the men in their lives. Find out why this book has been hailed as "masterful," "brilliantly written," "transforming" and a must-read for men and women, young or old!
