The Good Men Project: Real Stories from the Front Lines of Modern Manhood is more than a book; it is the centerpeice of a national discussion about what manhood means today. Thirty-one essays by a broad range of men--rich, poor, black, white, gay, straight, urban, rural, famous, ordinary--describe the challenges, obstacles, triumphs, failures, and life-changing moments that collectively help define what it means to be a man in America. Matt Gannon's documentary The Good Men Project: Real Stories from the Front Lines of Modern Manhood accompanies the book. The film mixes riveting footage and breathtaking photography with candid narration from ten disparate men describing the experiences that have defined their lives. Proceeds from sales of the book and the DVD will benefit The Good Men Foundation, a not-for-profit 501(c)(3) corporation supporting organizations that provide educational, social, financial, or legal support to men and boys at risk.

Move over, Rin Tin Tin. Here comes Sgt. Stubby! That German shepherd star of the silver screen may have been born behind enemy lines during World War I, but Stubby, the stump-tailed terrier, worked behind enemy lines, and gained military honors along the way. Private Robert Conroy casually adopted the orphan pup while attending basic training on the campus of Yale University in 1917. The Connecticut volunteer never imagined that his stray dog would become a war hero. He just liked the little guy. When Conroy's unit shipped out for France, he smuggled his new friend aboard. By the time Stubby encountered Conroy's commanding officer, the dog had perfected his right-paw salute. Charmed, the CO awarded Stubby mascot status and sent him along with Conroy's unit to the Western Front. Stubby's brave deeds earned him a place in history and in the Smithsonian Institution where his stuffed body can still be seen. Almost 100 years later, Stubby's great deeds and brave heart make him an animal hero to fall in love with and treasure all over again.
