Bringing up the Boy
Carl Avery Werner
64 pages~1 hr 16 min read11 chapters$4.99
Dime novels, cigarettes and the sin of sex secrecy: Carl Werner names the hazards of boyhood as 1913 saw them, then talks fathers through each one. From baby to boy to the world beyond the front door, his short chapters argue for simple discipline and honest answers over evasion. A period fatherhood manual with a surprisingly modern spine.
Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
