Reviews for The Official John Wayne Handy Book for Men: Essential Skills for the Rugged Individualist

This is no simple 'handyman's book.' No, this book holds the secrets to the more esoteric arts of the male repertoire, like building a fire, talking to ladyfolk, and raising children that aren't a blight on society. Don't let them ride off into the sunset without it. -Thingamagift
