Your man may not be famous, but he may be a business owner, a professional or a good father and provider. He may have pursued worthwhile endeavors and made his marks in his own way. Beside Every Great Man focuses on self-help for the African-American woman who desires to strengthen her relationship with her husband or partner, either as a full-time support system, a full-time business partner, or by working full time in a separate career; and it gives you clarity on how you can make a difference to your husband, your family, your community or your nation.

mfuqua23 Posted October 31, 2005 Report Share Posted October 31, 2005 I was getting ready to ask if Jada and Will was included. And I got my answer. Seems like a cool book. It's good to see role models and relationships go hand in hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
