7 Gifts For The Bearded Man

Before any man embarks on growing a real beard--not the paltry scruff so popular these days, but a real sorry-I-can't-come-out-tonight-I-have-to-wash-my-beard beard--must first educate himself both on proper beard style and on the legacy of which he is about to become a part. Beard, Matthew Rainwater's excellent visual chronicling of the 2009 World Beard and Moustache Championships in Anchorage, Alaska, is a journey through the entire breadth and depth of the facial hair universe. $15, Amazon
