The Single Father: A Dad's Guide to Parenting Without a Partner
A new guide to fatherhood from Armin A. Brott, the author of The Expectant Father, on dealing with the unique difficulties of parenting alone. In this ground-breaking volume author Armin Brott gives single dads the knowledge, skills, and support they need to become—and remain—actively involved fathers. With the same thoroughness, accessibility, and humor that have made the books in his critically acclaimed New Father series the best and most popular fatherhood guides in the country, Brott steers divorced, separated, gay, widowed, and never-married men through every aspect of fathering without a partner.

Illustrated with cartoons that underscore the challenges and, yes, even the satisfactions of single parenting, and complete with an extensive list of resources for divorced, widowed, and gay dads, The Single Father is one book no single dad can afford to do without.
