There are four great temptations that plague most young men: sloth, lust, love of pleasure, and peer pressure. J.C. Ryle, the last of the great Puritans, tackles each of the subjects with a tenderness and tact which is unsurpassed. Written toward the end of the 19th century, it remains to this day the most relevant and helpful book on the subject in print. If you have boys, this should be at the top of your gift-giving list. p.b., 96 pgs.
