This is a new edition of The Big Damn Book of Sheer Manliness and has been expanded from 224 pages to 256 pages. This affectionate and irreverent publication celebrating manliness has a number of minor changes (reorganization of the order of contents; changes in some photographs). Though not comprehensive, these are the larger and more noticeable changes from the previous edition:

"Texas Hold'em" is a new entry with 3 pages in the section on card playing; new page "Cappy 'n' Cuppy's Activity Page"; The "Top 25 Guy Movies" has added 6 pages with "Plus 10" new movies added; new section of 2 pages called "Can't Miss Classics" in the movies section; "World's Strongest Man has added a page; "Punkin Chunkin" and "Pumpkin Races" have been show more expanded by a total of 3 new pages; The "Spud Gun" section has been expanded by 3 additional pages; "Women Who Kill Us" has been revised and 2 new pages were added (nice full page photo of Sofia Loren); Nathan's Famous Hot Dogs has been added to "Mythic Haunts"; "Name Your Boat, etc." has been expanded with 1 new page; "Bar Bets" is now 3 pages up from 2 pages; 2 new pages on "The Flying Wing" with pictures from 1950's and 60's magazine covers; a new 1 page "Back Talk" section has reader comments listed.

All things being equal, both editions are comparable. Though this edition has been expanded by about 10 percent, the core whimsy about all things manly remains.

Booya.
