Romance- A Man's Way to His Soul confronts decades-old stereotypes of what it means to be a man, and opens the door for men to discover who they truly are-feeling human beings who can be confident, sincere, vulnerable, powerful, loving, and truly in touch with their masculine energy.

The reader of Trouble in Flatbush is given a picture of 1948-50 Brooklyn in stunning detail through the eyes of a 12-year-old boy. This account is a meticulous biography of place.
