Men’s Journal recently published a list of “35 Books Every Man Should Read in His Lifetime.”

Guess what grabbed the top spot?

One of our absolute faves:  Gift from the Sea by Anne Morrow Lindbergh.

They explain:

There’s good reason this 1955 non-fiction best-seller has been translated into 45 languages — we all have something to learn from it.  A woman rents a cottage by the ocean on Captiva Island, Florida.  She walks on the beach, picking up seashells (a metaphor for musing on life), and enjoys time away from busy everyday life as a mother of five, replacing it with sweeping up the dust from her cabin, connecting with nature, and ambling about.  It sounds like it shouldn’t work, but it’ll change your view on everything, from work and women to the importance of solitude and hitting the pause button every once in a while.

If you’d like to order a copy, it’s available here from Amazon or at any of your favorite booksellers.
