It shouldn’t be the least bit surprising that Sam Martin, author of How to Mow the Lawn: The Lost Art of Being a Man, is a Texan. Because even if Texas has a tendency to churn out really crummy presidents, its genteel ethos is, for better or for worse, one of the last remaining bastions of homestyle decency. Lawn’s step-by-step guidelines offer insight, often very funny insight on how to do such manly things as shaving and get into a girl’s bedroom (you don’t necessarily have to make it all the way to the bedroom). Don’t expect to read this book and know how to care for a lawn. It is basically a bunch of 1 page tips and suggestions on what the author thinks a man should know. I like a lot of them, and think that it’s well worth a buy.
