THE DUCK COMMANDER FAMILY (WILLIE & KORIE ROBERTSON)

 
 
Story Description: 
 
Howard Books|October 9, 2012|Hardcover|ISBN: 978-1-4767-0354-1 
 
Faith, Family, Ducks – in that order. 
 
This book gives readers an up-close and personal behind-the-scenes look at the family in the exploding A & E show – Duck Dynasty.  This Louisiana bayou family operates Duck Commander, a booming family business that has made them millions.  You’ll hear all about the Robertson clan from Willie and what it was like growing up in the Robertson household.  You’ll sample some of Willie’s favourite family recipes from Phil, Kay, and even some of his own concoctions; and you’ll get to know the beautiful Robertson women.  You’ll hear from Korie about the joys and hardships of raising a family, running a business, and wrangling the Robertson men while staying fashionable and beautiful inside and out.  Discover more about the family dynamics between brothers’ Willie, Jase, Jep, and parents Phil and Kay.  You’ll even meet a fourth brother who isn’t in the show. 
 
The popularity of Duck Dynasty is skyrocketing, garnering a Wednesday-night top two finish in all of cable.  The book releases in time for season two of the show in October 2012. 
 
My Review: 
 
This was a great read and I learned so much about the Robertson clan that I didn’t know.  The men are all very well educated and no dummies when it comes to business sense.  I was quite surprised to learn that Phil is a very different man today than he was in his earlier years when he and Miss Kay married. 
 
The Robertson’s are a very religious family and base their business decisions and family decisions around God’s teachings.  They feel no matter if they win or lose, it’s because what God has planned for them and manage to take everything in stride. 
 
For anyone who loves to watch Duck Dynasty will also love to read this book.  It’s packed full of information that will blow you away in a lot of places.  I might just read it again so I can remember all the things I learned about this talented and prosperous family.  Now when I watch the show I’ll have a really good understanding of who everyone is and what makes them tick.  Highly recommendable for sure!
