Synopsis
Marriage Advice That Stands the Test of Time … Most of the Time
Originally published in the United Kingdom nearly a century ago, How to Be a Good Husband captures a wide range of “do’s and don’ts” for men of the era. Some of the advice is sensible, some is dated, and some is even funny. But much of it is unexpectedly timeless.
This restored edition presents the complete original text alongside modern annotations from The Husband School, offering historical context and occasional translation for contemporary readers. The added material includes:
- A new book introduction and conclusion
- New introductions to each chapter
- Over 80 annotations and editorial notes
The commentary is designed to illuminate, not editorialize—allowing readers to appreciate the book both as practical guidance from another time and as a revealing window into social history.
Whether read straight through or dipped into selectively, this edition offers a thoughtful look at marriage advice from a world that feels distant, yet oddly familiar—and surprisingly relevant.
This repackaged and annotated edition of How to Be a Good Husband serves as an older, more buttoned-up companion to The New Husband’s Survival Guide—a tongue-in-cheek manual for 21st-century guys trying to peacefully cohabitate with a woman."synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
