  Metrosexuals and macho men might come and go, but one thing that is always in fashion is a hero. From ancient Greece to modern superhero movies, heroes have shaped their world, overcoming adversity and injustice, saving lives and sometimes sacrificing their own, and in the process winning (and breaking) hearts everywhere. Think James Bond, Clark Kent or any dashing fireman. Every man wants to be a hero - and now every man can. Learn what do in any emergency, how to save cats from trees, fix a flat tire, make the perfect cocktail, rescue a damsel in distress, perform the Heimlich maneuver and leap buildings in a single bound (well, not so much the last one). Witty, clever and packed with really useful information, this indispensable guide will help any man become a true knight in shining armour. Sam Martin is the best-selling author of How to Mow the Lawn, How to Keep House and Bringing Up Baby. He lives in Austin, Texas, with his wife and his two sons. He currently works fulltime as a freelance writer, editor and modern hero.
