An entertaining read, this book is short on culture and [[American]] political history (except talks extensively about [[Teddy Roosevelt]]), while long in academic arguments based on mostly-ancient literature.  Professor Mansfield points out that ''[[Macbeth]]'' contains [[Shakespeare]]'s most praise of manliness and has many enlightening discussions of literature, such as a passage about Henry James' anti-feminist ''Bostonians''.
