Description

Fire in the Dark explores the common themes in masculine myths from around the world's religions that remain relevant to men today.

The author, Jack Donovan, identifies a tripartite system of masculine roles and shows how these roles have been repeated throughout history, from the primal metaphor of the campfire to the ideals of order, protection, and perpetuation.

Donovan integrates these ideals into a natural religion for men that draws on ancient ideas about what it means to be a man.
