This book will appeal to fans of Nick Offerman and Parks and Recreation, readers who enjoy humorous memoirs, and those interested in unconventional life advice with a rugged, masculine twist.
The actor known for roles in such productions as Parks and Recreation shares whimsical musings on a range of topics from love and manliness to grooming and eating meat, offering additional discussions of his life before fame and his courtship of his wife, Megan Mullally.
Combining his trademark comic voice and very real expertise in carpentry,Paddle Your Own Canoefeatures tales from Offerman's childhood (born, literally, in the middle of an Illinois cornfield) to his theatre days in Chicago to the, frankly, magnificent seduction of his wife, Megan Mullally.

Description
When it comes to growing a robust moustache, masticating red meat, building a chair or wooing a woman, who better to educate you than the always charming, always manly Nick Offerman, best known as Parks and Recreation's (NBC) Ron Swanson?
Offerman also shares his hard-bitten battle strategies in the arenas of manliness, love, styles and religion, and offers invaluable advice on getting the utmost pleasure out of woodworking, assorted meats, outdoor recreations and other palatable entrees.
Paddle Your Own Canoe is an essential guide to navigating life with humour and wisdom, imparted by someone who knows how to live with grit and grace.
Book Hero Magic summarised reviews for this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! HOW HAS THIS BEEN REVIEWED?
“[Offerman] not only explores his Paul Bunyan–like image with tongue-in-cheek lessons on manliness, complete with illustrations and advice, but also offers poignant memories of his childhood growing up in Illinois and hilarious anecdotes from his career.” — Entertainment Weekly
“Offerman touches on everything from his days as a break-dancing, football-playing farm boy in Minooka to his freewheeling, hedonistic 20s in Chicago to the inevitable Hollywood struggles that followed.” — Chicago Magazine
“Thought-provoking, profane, and frequently hilarious…getting to know Offerman through his stumbling courtship with Megan Mullally and Kabuki theater training is well worth the price of admission.” — Publishers Weekly
