Getting It Right the First Time by Barry Mccarthy

Getting It Right theFirst Time provides the information every couple needs to know to understand what really makes a marriage work.

"Barry and Emily McCarthy alert us to a little known fact: the seeds of divorce are often planted in the first two years of marriageThis wise and wonderful book is one of the finest sources of divorce prevention and marital happiness I've seen." -- Pat Love, author of The TruthAbout Love
"The largest portion of our ministry to marriage is preparation. Barry and Emily present an excellent, "how-to" for couples entering marriage. Getting It Right the First Time is also a survival kit for couples in the early years of marriage, a population for which our work is most critical. This book is more than a manual with professional wisdom for making a marriage work; it is also a powerful, practical witness to successful marriage in the 21st Century. I would recommend it for those preparing for marriage and especially those traversing the rocky early years." -- Andrew Lyke, Coordinator of Marriage Ministry for the Catholic Archdiocese of Chicago
"From now on, I'll recommend the client read Getting It Right the First Time. This book is like having a fireside chat with an experienced couple therapist, and I wish I had written it myself. It is intended to provide couples with important skills and understandings of marriage during the critical first years, when they are forming important habits and when they are most vulnerable.Getting It Right is realistic. The authors promise "no simple answers" (p. 1), and do not guarantee relationship success from reading any book, even theirs. I am going to give Getting it Right to anyone who wants to understand where I am coming from." -- JMFT
