We live in an age that has forgotten what it means to be a man. In a world where masculinity is questioned, ridiculed, or labelled toxic, The Good Man Boromir and the Hero Aragorn offers a bold, mythic framework for rediscovering male strength, responsibility, and honour.
Blending deep psychological insight, historical reference, and narrative from The Lord of the Rings, author and men's coach John Elliott presents a practical and moving manifesto for men of all ages. Boromir and Aragorn are not just characters-they are archetypes. Boromir represents the struggle of pride, duty, and the temptation to prove oneself. Aragorn embodies the reluctant but noble leader who leads with restraint, service, and conviction. Together, they show us what it takes to be whole. This book is for every man who's been made to feel ashamed of his instincts. It's for fathers, sons, and brothers who want to rediscover strength with humility. It's for anyone who believes masculinity is not a problem to be solved, but a force to be refined.John Elliott is a passionate advocate for men's mental health and emotional resilience.
