The Dadly Virtues by Jonathan V. Last

A breezy, anecdote-filled manifesto for modern fathers that mixes personal stories, cultural criticism, and practical counsel, urging men to embrace enduring masculine virtues—courage, discipline, playfulness, moral leadership—rather than ceding parenting to risk-avoidance or overprotective trends; it offers concrete suggestions and wry observations about raising children in a technology-saturated, safety-conscious age while arguing that presence, responsibility, and measured authority are the best gifts a father can give.
