description: The Men of the Square Table are selected for their exceptional display of manhood and for their unique point of view on the course of man. Each council session of the Men of the Square Table includes a mix of eight men who represent the essence of their time. Originally formed from several of the Knights of Arthur's court, this almost-900-year-old, secret council has since been attended by Sir Isaac Newton, Leonardo da Vinci, Benjamin Franklin, Abraham Lincoln, Robert E. Lee, and Davy Crockett. The most recent congress, held in March of 2006, is believed to have included Burt Reynolds, Jerome Bettis, Ty Murray, Aron Ralston, and Brian Binnie. Between all men, there exists an unwritten set of rules. They govern what is in good taste and what is not regarding women, style, fashion, property, personal space, language, and current slang, as well as who is responsible for buying beer, when exactly you're free to date your friend's ex, and how to act in a locker room. Until recently, these laws were passed around by word of mouth, handed down from generation to generation, and most men seemed to know right from wrong. But with so many of today's men blissfully breaking these sacred rules, it has become absolutely necessary to publish this book. Now, for the first time ever, Crispin Porter + Bogusky, in association with Miller Lite, present the complete book of unwritten Man Laws for the general public: The Unwritten Laws of Man. It's big, it smells old, and each book comes with its very own 800-year accumulation of dust. The beautifully illuminated pages record decisions on Man Law dating back to 1145 AD. Heavy to lift, as any book of this magnitude should be, hundreds upon hundreds of pagescatalogue carefully inked decisions, which have charted the course of male culture over a millennia. You'll enter the inner sanctum of The Men of the Square Table, the clandestine brain trust of Man Law. Many believe they are the illuminati, the mythical circle of plutocrats who control the entire world. Shrouded in total secrecy, scholars have recently unearthed evidence that suggests the ancient council descends from the original Knights of the Round Table.
