Phil Robertson was born and raised in a small town near Shreveport, Louisiana. After college he spent several years teaching but soon decided to devote his talents elsewhere: he began to experiment with making a call that would produce the exact sound of a duck, and thus Duck Commander was born. Duck Commander is still a family business, now featured on the A&E® TV series Duck Dynasty®.Mark Schlabach is the coauthor of the New York Times bestselling books, Happy, Happy, Happy, Si-cology 1, and The Duck Commander Family. He is one of the most respected and popular college football columnists in the country. He and his wife live in Madison, Georgia, with their three children. Happy, Happy, Happy
LIVING THE DREAM
Duck calls—though the source of his livelihood—are not what makes Phil Robertson the man he is today. When asked what matters in his life, he’s quick to say, “Faith, family, ducks—in that order.”
It isn’t often that a person can live a dream, but Phil Robertson, aka The Duck Commander, has proven that it is possible with vision, hard work, helping hands, and an unshakable faith in the Almighty. Phil’s is the remarkable story of one man who followed the call he received from God and soon after invented a duck call that would begin an incredible journey to the life he had always dreamed of for himself and his family. In the love of his country, his family, and his maker, Phil has finally found the ingredients to the “good life” he always wanted.
If you ever wind up sitting face-to-face with Phil, you’ll see that his enthusiasm and passion for duck hunting and the Lord is no act—it is truly who he is.
If you’ve watched the exceedingly popular A&E® program Duck Dynasty®, you already know the famed Phil Robertson. As patriarch of the Robertson clan and creator of Duck Commander duck calls, he fearlessly leads his family in a responsible work ethic and an active faith.
But what you don’t know is his life before the show. In the pages of this book, you’ll learn of Phil’s colorful past and his wild road to the “happy, happy, happy” life he leads today. Before the “happy,” Phil’s passion for the outdoors and wild living led him down some shady paths. As a young husband and father, he became the proprietor of a rough bar and lived a life, as he says, of “romping, stomping, and ripping” for a number of years. He even left his wife and young boys for a short period of time.
Through it all, Phil Robertson has lived his life as a “called” man. Called to live off the land, called to leave a starring role in Louisiana Tech football (playing ahead of Terry Bradshaw) for duck hunting, called to wild living, called to create a new kind of duck call—and finally, called to follow God and lead a life of faith.
In this eye-opening and rousing book, you’ll find stories that will shock you, as well as those that will inspire you. You’ll get to know the man behind the legend, and you’ll come away better for it.
Interesting, Inspirational, and Revealing This is an autobiography of Duck Dynasty's founding father, Phil Robertson. It is an absolutely fascinating read. You may recall that Phil's comments to GQ magazine caused quite a furor in 2013, and you probably either love or hate the show based on his family on A&E cable channel. This book, among other things, puts his comments in perspective - something the mass media did not attempt to do.And, it does a lot more than that. I even learned a lot more than I knew about hunting and duck calls. In fact I had no idea the duck call business could be that good -- but, I've read elsewhere that the business has made him worth about $20 million. Warning: if you are a PETA member you will hate this guy. He spends a lot of time hunting and eating what he hunts - definitely not a vegetarian.Robertson has been many things: oil field worker, bar owner, rake, hunter, commercial fisherman, inventor (of duck calls), salesman and preacher. Mostly he is a hunter and very good father and husband. He is also a very smart man, belying his "redneck" persona. This book takes you through the whole progression of his life from childhood to his present life as a multi-millionaire semi-retired businessman, speaker, head of a close and loving family, lay evangelist, and reality television star.Along the way he clearly shows how his practical philosophy and spiritual life developed. It seems like he really has found the secret of creating a loving family productive over several generations and found a way to be happy, happy, happy no matter the external circumstances.The result is a great read which is inspirational, comforting to the religious or the troubled, and which makes you look at the Duck Dynasty show with new, and perhaps more sympathetic, eyes. He tells a great story. Whether you agree with him or not, like the show or not, or haven't seen it, you will find this read worthwhile. It made me "Happy, Happy, Happy."True Life Story God changed his life for the good Ok if you are a Duck Dynasty fan, I really think you are going to enjoy this. If you do not want to hear about God's grace and how it changed Phil Robertson's life, you may want to skip this book. I believe it is an even balance of regular life and how God is dispersed through it. I really enjoyed his point of view and learning how he grew up and Duck Commander started. I hope my opinion helps you in purchasing this book.
