For Men Only is a fantastic book! All married men need to read it and men that are hoping to "take a wife" someday need to read it as well. It's a simple read. Written in guy language. And straightforward. For once, this book was the perfect amount of pages. I never felt as though they were dragging a subject out. Once they explained a subject, they pulled a Forrest Gump and said, "And that's all I have to say about that."
If I could get every guy in my church to read this book, their marriages would be absolutely revolutionized! I love the practical insights and simple suggestions to implementing their points. A lot of men's books seem to talk down to men, but this one doesn't. It meets men right where they are and gives them the tools to improve their marriage. I'm thankful to a guy who reads this blog and mailed me the book. Thanks dude!
Based on your review, I think I will pick it up, thanks.
As a new Christian 6 years ago, I read Tender Warrior by Stu Webber and it really helped me. Boy Meets Girl and Wild At Heart were both decent too.
Have you read any of these, how would you compare them?

Mark,
I love Wild at Heart. I've read it 3 times. I also read Captivating (his wife's book).
I haven't read Boy Meets Girl. Tender Warrior I've skimmed, so I got the gist of it.
This book is about relating to your wife and understanding her. I've read a lot of marriage books and this is one of my favorites.
