American Hunter Audible Audiobook – Unabridged

4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars 146 ratings
See all formats and editions

New York Times best-selling author and star of A&E's Duck Dynasty, Willie Robertson, teams up with William Doyle, the best-selling author of American Gun, to share the history of America's most well-known hunters.

America was created by hunters, trappers, and mountain men.

As Teddy Roosevelt put it: "The virility, clear-sighted common sense, and resourcefulness of the American people is due to the fact that we have been a nation of hunters and frequenters of the forest, plains, and waters." And Willie Robertson and William Doyle think it's about time we honor American hunters by telling their incredible stories of skill, courage, survival, and downright bodaciousness.

Perfect for anyone who loves hunting, sport shooting, and wide-open spaces and is interested in the amazing tales that are part of the history of America, this rip-roaring collection of true stories is perfect for sharing around the campfire after a long day's hunt.

Chronicling the great hunters of America - beginning with the Plains Indians and moving through legendary hunters like Daniel Boone, Davey Crockett, Kit Carson, Buffalo Bill, Teddy Roosevelt, Ernest Hemingway, Lyndon Johnson, and more - American Hunter honors the heroes and traditions that have built America.

    This title offered a good look at some of the highlights of the history of hunting in North America. Mixed in with facts and historical stories the author provides his point of view and shares personal stores that relate to the overarching theme of each chapter. By far my personal favorite is the final chapter presenting quotes from various hunters and conservationists throughout history. I will absolutely be reading this book again and suggesting it to others.

    I'll be honest here. This book started out slow and seemed to go nowhere fast. Then by chapter 3 or 4 it got a lot better and I found it very interesting and a fun read. I may have to read a biography on Teddy Roosevelt now. I agree that being in the wild wooded land is the closest and easiest way to be with the Creator.

    Great read, I read it in two days while i was on jury duty. Willie Robertson has written a book about how hunting and American history have been intertwined since the beginning. He starts with the Indians and goes from there all the way up to modern times and the different US Presidents that have enjoyed hunting and shooting.

    An outstanding book every hunter should read. In addition to learning a great deal about the history of our nation, it is a fascinating read that will keep every outdoorsman, and woman, on the edge of their seat. We've all heard of the legendary men of the woods, but the section on woman hunters was most interesting.
