Father’s Day 2026 Non-Fiction Gift Ideas

Stuck for what to get Dad for Father’s Day? Here’s a few ideas to get you started. We begin with ‘Fatherhood’, Augustine Sedgewick’s masterful social history of masculinity, which offers a caring and affirmative vision of the roles men play at home and in the world. Then we move on to some modern classics of memoir about the father-child relationship, before offering up some (slightly stereotypical) ideas for new books hitting some of those classic Dad subjects: Nature, Performing Arts, Sport, and History. If your Dad has specific interests please get in touch, we’d love to recommend some books that will hit the spot!
