About this item
From the all-star cast who brought you The Seven Deadly Virtues comes a book with a look at the good life ... or the crazy-stressful-overwhelmed life ... of a father. The Dadly Virtues is a tongue-in-cheek collection of encouragement and guidance for any stage of fatherhood, from pacifying babies to prepping for senior prom, from cutting the cord to getting the first, "Best Grandpa" t-shirt. P.J. O'Rourke sets the stage with the chapter, "What Do Men Get from Fatherhood? Besides What They Put In ... " and then is followed by: * Matthew Continetti's, "Newborn Terror: The Moment You Realize that 'Bundle of Joy' Is a Euphemism for Something Very Different." * Stephen F. Hayes' "Siblings: The Best Gift You'll Ever Give Your Kids.
