The MANUAL is an inspirational memoir of positive change. A man's journey of life lessons. Sean M. Flynn chronicles his experiences from a streetwise, adventurous adolescent on the vivid streets of South Side Chicago to a doting son, devoted father, committed brother, uncle, and God-fearing Christian. THE MANUAL identifies the key attributes that every minority male must balance in order to become a REAL man. Its a very honest and relatable story that accurately depicts life in the harsh inner city. THE MANUAL narrates that manhood is not about the conquest of women, producing babies, or even making a lot of money. THE MANUAL teaches everyone--regardless of age, gender or race--that REAL manhood is first and foremost about seeking a perfect union with God and living one's life in accordance with Godly principles. THE MANUAL is a blueprint for living a life of peace and prosperity for one's self, one's family, and one's community. Its an essential guideline for growing from a boy to a man"
