Ebook True Men as We Need Them

The hearty welcome given by the public to the mirror or 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.
