Synopsis

These days, it's harder than ever to know how to act like a real man. We're not talking about the touchy-feely, ultra-sensitive, emotion-sharing, not-afraid-to-cry version of manhood that Oprah and Dr. Phil have been spouting for years. We're talking about the though, smart, confident, charming, classy, all-around good fella that upholds the true ideal of what is known as "a man's man."

Now, renowned actor and true-life man's man Frank Vincent, famed for his unforgettable tough-guy roles in such classic films as Raging Bull, Goodfellas and HBO's The Sopranos, is going to show how any man can be all that he can be in love, work, play, and life. Everything you need to know is covered here, including, getting the best women by being the best man, dressing like a champ and taking on the world, winning big money and big respect in Las Vegas, selecting, smoking, and savoring a great cigar, and much more.

If you want to learn how to be a man's man, you gotta learn from a man's man. And with the great Frank Vincent vouching for you, you'll be on your way to getting everything you ever wanted outta life.
