photo credit: paul (dex) I’ve been bombarded with great Father’s Day lists, so I’ve compiled a nice variety of choices for us. I chose those that kept appearing time and time again, and I’m afraid I didn’t organize this list at all, but I am (hopefully) using a new feature Amazon offers where you can float your mouse over a link and more information should pop up… We’ll see if I have figured it out! By the way, please contribute your own favorite books for men in the comments!
