You know him from the hit A&E show Duck Dynastyβnow you can enjoy Uncle Siβs tall tales, crazy exploits, and quirky one-liners in one raucous collection! βThese hands are so fast, I can get your wallet before you know it. In a minute, youβll be standing there buck naked and wonβt know what hit you!β βLook hereβif it wasnβt for my tripped knee, Iβd be playing in the NBA today.β βHey, Jack!β Any of these sound familiar? If they doβor even if they donβtβyouβre in for a good laugh. The brother of patriarch Phil Robertson, Uncle Si has a limitless supply of stories about his childhood, duck hunting adventures, his days in Vietnam, and everything in between. Now the best of those tales are gathered into this roaring book. And as Uncle Si recounts his outlandish tales, he weaves in an up-close look into his personal life. You'll learn about his childhood life as the youngest son in the Robertson family, his college days, and his time in Vietnam. Si shares stories of the scores of marriage proposals heβs received in the mail (some with photos!), how he came to use a green Tupperware cup for his ever-present sweet tea, and how his cigarette smoke made a deer cough (heβs since quit smoking). And in many of these never-before-heard tales, Si openly talks about his wife Christina and two children, Scott and Trasaβwho are never seen and rarely mentioned on the show. Sure to please die-hard fans and curious newbies alike, Siβs one-liners are presented alongside fun, expressive photographs, as well as photos of his family. As you learn about his behind-the-scenes life, this smattering of zany stories will have you falling over with laughter and retelling them to all your friends.
