The early 21st century is a complex time presenting unique challenges for men. This book examines many of those challenges, from dysfunctional relationships and confusion about what it means to be ‘male’ in the postmodern world, to understanding the dark side of the masculine psyche, as well as how to apply the best qualities of ‘warrior consciousness’ to experience overall success and fulfilment in life.

These gentleman warriors knew the secret of making chicken salad out of "Chicken PShaw". They knew how to connect the pauper with the prince to serve his school, his family, and his community in humble victorious engagements while he mesmerized all with his passionate smile of genuine respect for the best in all he met.They may have been hall of famers on the athletic fields during their day, this was a label of accomplishment for certain, however, their glory and honor came with their daily battles to help us become better human beings by just being ourselves. Coach Fulton, even on his last hospital bedside days in Richmond as our Leader, found a way to inspire the doctors, nurses, and bedpan collectors. He made all who met him fill like a KING or a QUEEN. NOTHING was NOT IMPORTANT! Nothing....This Collection of stories is nothing more than true accounts about Stokeley Fulton, Louis Wacker, and Bobby Saylor, their family of brothers, sisters, children, coaches, players, and friends.

He loved and idolized every human being that walked the pathways of the school and everything associated with the dream of the school. He would be the first to say that credit went to someone else. His coaches were smarter, the professors more noble, the players more talented, the ladies more pretty than anything he could bring to the table. He just enjoyed being with the band of brothers and he would give his last breath to the process of winning on and off the battlefields we would walk. He also knew that a special bond existed within the family of men and women of his South-Central Virginia. He knew they all were creating Gentlemen Warriors and he loved it. His brother coaches on the football field were also Hall of Famers, Tiger Campus leaders of men, and leaders of other communities. They too, went on to pass on the secrets of the gentleman warriors. Their young academic/athletic charges from other lands would also go and blossom like Stokeley's roses that he grew in his back yard. (I bet you guys did not know this one!

Book Description
Winner of the prestigious George Washington Book Prize, George Washington is a vivid recounting of the formative years and military career of "The Father of his Country," following his journey from brutal border skirmishes with the French and their Native American allies to his remarkable victory over the British Empire, an achievement that underpinned his selection as the first president of the United States of America. The book focuses on a side of Washington that is often overlooked: the feisty young frontier officer and the early career of the tough forty-something commander of the revolutionaries' ragtag Continental Army. Award-winning historian Stephen Brumwell shows how, ironically, Washington's reliance upon English models of "gentlemanly" conduct, and on British military organization, was crucial in establishing his leadership of the fledgling Continental Army, and in forging it into the weapon that secured American independence. Drawing on a wide range of sources, including original archival research, Brumwell brings a fresh new perspective on this extraordinary individual, whose fusion of gentleman and warrior left an indelible imprint on history.

Book Description
“Here is a welcome reminder that men can be gentlemen without turning into ladies—or louts.”—Michelle Malkin "Miner writes with wit and charm."—Wall Street Journal The Gentleman: An Endangered Species? The catalog of masculine sins grows by the day—mansplaining, manspreading, toxic masculinity—reflecting our confusion over what it means to be a man. Is a man’s only choice between the brutish, rutting #MeToo lout and the gelded imitation woman, endlessly sensitive and fun to go shopping with? No. Brad Miner invites you to discover the oldest and best model of manhood— the gentleman. In this tour de force of popular history and gentlemanly persuasion, Miner lays out the thousand-year history of this forgotten ideal and makes a compelling case for its modern revival. Three masculine archetypes emerge here—the warrior, the lover, and the monk—forming the character of “the compleat gentleman.” He cultivates a martial spirit in defense of the true and the beautiful. He treats the opposite sex with passionate respect. And he values learning in pursuit of the truth. Miner’s gentleman stands out for the combination of discretion, decorum, and nonchalance that the Renaissance called sprezzatura. He belongs to an aristocracy of virtue, not of wealth or birth, following a lofty code of manly conduct, which, far from threatening democracy, is necessary for its survival.
