RULES FOR MY UNBORN SON is a collection of traditional, humorous, and urbane fatherly advice for boys. From the sartorial ("If you are tempted to wear a cowboy hat, resist") to the practical ("Keep a copy of your letters. It makes it easier for your biographer") to even a couple of sure-fire hangover cures ("There is no better remedy than a dip in the ocean"), the book of rules and accompanying quotations is quite simply an instruction manual for becoming a Good Man - industrious, thoughtful, charming, and of course, well-dressed.

Now, at 25 I'm reading this book and am transformed into a 10 year old again. This book, in its compact elegance, is worth its weight in gold to any twenty-something with wants to tips from the "expert" father. Although I have already adapted some of the rules into my daily routine, I have been constantly reminded to be classy and gentlemanly during my read. This book has made its way into my "absolutely must be recommended" list.
7 of 7 people found the following review helpful. Almost Brilliant By K. Taylor Rules for My Unborn Son contains a selection of posts from Walker Lamond's website of the (almost) same name, presented beautifully in hardback with numerous photographs and illustrations.The concept behind Lamond's website is both inspired and inspiring, a collection of dicta ranging from the practical to the moral to the philosophical, complemented by carefully selected photographs and musical pieces that illustrate his points perfectly. The rest of the Internet could disappear tomorrow and all would be well provided Lamond continues with his postings.His book, however, seems to lack a certain something that makes the website such compulsive reading, at least for a fan who has already pored over the archives multiple times. The problem, I think, stems from the unavoidable limitations imposed by the publishing process in capturing the essence of the site; where the site flows so perfectly with photograph leading to caption leading to song leading to the next nugget of wisdom the book seems a little disjointed, rather less rich and engaging. The book is still great, just not perfect.Despite these unfortunate deficiencies, Rules for My Unborn Son would make a perfect gift for anyone with eyes and the ability to read English, and it would be an ideal introduction to the greater treasures contained within the site itself. I've already bought two copies, and as holidays and birthdays roll around once again I'll continue to buy this book for everyone I know and love until my friends and family stage an intervention.

Mckay Walker Lamond's Rules for My Unborn Son is filled with classic and timeless wisdom that every father should pass on to their son. The tips cover everything from the sartorial to how to handle yourself in a fist fight ("Aim for the nose"). My favorite: "A man's luggage does not have wheels." The book is also scattered with images from mid-century America that only add to the classic tone of the book.If you know a soon-to-be dad, get this book for them. Even if you're not a dad, get the book. The advice is useful for men of all ages on how to be a well rounded man.
