Excerpt from True Men as We Need Them: A Book of Instruction for Men in the World
The hearty welcome given by the public to the Mirror of True Womanhood, encourages the author to send forth this volume as a companion to it. The same plan, so far as the subject-matter would permit, has been followed in both.
Much of the utility as well as of the success of the present work will depend on those who have so generously patronized its predecessor, - the True Women of America. Coming from their hand to husband, son, or brother, the book will prove acceptable and most precious. Its lessons too must derive much of their power to please and to in struct from the eloquent advocacy of the wives and mothers to whom we must owe the true men of the future.
Renewing his sincere thanks to publisher, printer, and engraver, for their zealous and kindly cooperation, the author now leaves his work to the judgment of the public, and beseeches on its readers the blessing of Him who is Himself both Very God and True Man, - the ever-blessed Model of all true nobility of life.

St. Alphonsus writes: “a single bad book will be sufficient to cause the destruction of a monastery.” Pope Pius XII wrote in 1947 at the beatification of Blessed Maria Goretti: “There rises to Our lips the cry of the Saviour: 'Woe to the world because of scandals!' (Matthew 18:7). Woe to those who consciously and deliberately spread corruption-in novels, newspapers, magazines, theaters, films, in a world of immodesty!” We at St. Pius X Press are calling for a crusade of good books. We want to restore 1,000 old Catholic books to the market. We ask for your assistance and prayers. This book is a photographic reprint of the original. The original has been inspected and many imperfections in the existing copy have been corrected. At Saint Pius X Press our goal is to remain faithful to the original in both photographic reproductions and in textual reproductions that are reprinted. Photographic reproductions are given a page by page inspection, whereas textual reproductions are proofread to correct any errors in reproduction.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the timeless ideal of true manhood, drawing inspiration from both historical and contemporary examples of excellence. The author emphasizes the importance of character, highlighting virtues such as truthfulness, honor, integrity, generosity, and resolute energy. These qualities, the author argues, are not exclusive to any social class or time period but are accessible to all men who strive for self-improvement and fidelity to their conscience. The book delves into the concept of honor, contrasting the superficial understanding of reputation with the deeper notion of integrity before God and oneself. It showcases figures like Samuel from the Old Testament and St. Louis, King of France, as embodiments of this ideal. The author stresses the need for men to be God-fearing, dutiful, and high-minded, qualities that foster diligence, perseverance, and self-reliance. This book serves as a compelling call to action for men of all walks of life, encouraging them to embrace their responsibilities and strive for excellence in all their endeavors. By cultivating the virtues outlined within its pages, men can not only fulfill their individual potential but also contribute meaningfully to the betterment of society. Ultimately, the book's insights remind us that true manhood is not a relic of the past but a living ideal that can guide us toward a more just and noble future.
