LIVING THE DREAM
Duck callsāthough the source of his livelihoodāare not what makes Phil Robertson the man he is today. When asked what matters in his life, heās quick to say, āFaith, family, ducksāin that order.ā
It isnāt 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. Philās 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 āgood lifeā he always wanted.
If you ever wind up sitting face-to-face with Phil, youāll see that his enthusiasm and passion for duck hunting and the Lord is no actāit is truly who he is.
If youāve watched the exceedingly popular A&EĀ® program Duck DynastyĀ®, 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 donāt know is his life before the show. In the pages of this book, youāll learn of Philās colorful past and his wild road to the āhappy, happy, happyā life he leads today. Before the āhappy,ā Philās 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 āromping, stomping, and rippingā 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 ācalledā 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 callāand finally, called to follow God and lead a life of faith.
In this eye-opening and rousing book, youāll find stories that will shock you, as well as those that will inspire you. Youāll get to know the man behind the legend, and youāll come away better for it.
