Manly Piety: A Book For Young Men (1879) is a non-fiction book written by Robert Philip. The book is aimed at young men and discusses the importance of developing a strong sense of piety, or religious devotion, in order to lead a fulfilling and successful life. Philip argues that true manliness is not just about physical strength and bravery, but also about moral and spiritual strength. He encourages young men to cultivate virtues such as honesty, humility, and self-control, and to strive for excellence in all areas of their lives. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which focuses on a different aspect of manly piety. Topics covered include the importance of prayer and Bible study, the value of hard work and perseverance, the dangers of temptation and vice, and the importance of seeking guidance and support from trusted mentors and friends. Throughout the book, Philip draws on examples from the lives of great men of history, including biblical figures such as David and Daniel, as well as more contemporary figures such as William Wilberforce and Abraham Lincoln. He also includes practical advice and exercises to help young men develop their own sense of piety and moral character. Overall, Manly Piety: A Book For Young Men is a thoughtful and inspiring guide to living a virtuous and fulfilling life, and is recommended for any young man seeking to cultivate his own sense of piety and moral strength.With An Introductory Essay And Memoir Of The Author.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
