'Iron John is Robert Bly's long-awaited book on male initiation and the role of the mentor, the result of ten years' work with men to discover the truths about masculinity that get beyond the stereotypes of our popular culture....brings together a rich and coherent picture of what it has meant through time to pass from boyhood into manhood.'
