Overview:

Rules for My Unborn Son  is a collection of traditional, humorous, and urbane fatherly advice for boys. From the sartorial (If you are tempted to wear a cowboy hat, resist) to the practical (Keep a copy of your letters. It makes it easier for your biographer) to even a couple of sure-fire hangover cures (There is no better remedy than a dip in the ocean), the book of rules and accompanying quotations is quite simply an instruction manual for becoming a Good Man - industrious, thoughtful, charming, and of course, well-dressed. Hip and witty with a decidedly traditionalist flavor, Rules for My Unborn Son is meant to evoke simpler times when Father knew best and a suitable answer to Why? was Because I said so.
