+23. Giving models a custom manager
+
+You can use a custom ``Manager`` in a particular model by extending the base
+``Manager`` class and instantiating your custom ``Manager`` in your model.
+
+There are two reasons you might want to customize a ``Manager``: to add extra
+``Manager`` methods, and/or to modify the initial ``QuerySet`` the ``Manager``
+returns.
