The secret to a happy marriage lies in knowing married life is a work in progress. Most couples feel their marriage could be something more than it already is – a little better, a little richer, a little more fulfilling. A husband is called upon to be a protector, a guide, and so much more – not in competition with his wife, but in collaboration. If husbands become stronger, marriages will become stronger, and so will families.

This handbook provides direction for communicating effectively, handling stress, and keeping passion alive. William Rabior and David Wachowiak draw on their own successes and failures as husbands, providing the reader with new insights into how every marriage can move forward. Each chapter concludes with reflection points that will guide husbands to make the most of being a great leader, lover, and nurturer. The final chapter also contains fifty things married couples can do to bring them closer.
