Publisher's Summary: On a three-day canoe trip in Montana, Glenn Frontin sees things in his two sons he never noticed back home in civilization. A River Calling is one dad's story of realizing how easy it is to be a passive father - on the battlefield, but not in the fight.

Members Reviews: Great story A great story about two canoe trips with Christian thoughts and stories added in. If your not into religion those sections can be bypassed but you would be missing some good food for thought.

A book that will leave everyone feeling spiritual! As I finish the book " a River Calling", I look back at the pages, underlined; dog-eared and tear-stained. Mr. Frontin tells a remarkable tale of a journey as a young man, a journey of faith and a journey of fatherhood. A tale everyone will be able to relate to in one sense or another. Telling more than one story in a book is no small feat and as a first time, published writer I was impressed at the ease he was able to take the reader from one tale and then to the other. Never realizing how long the Missouri River was, it is hard to fathom what it takes to canoe such a daunting river. The adventures of these four young men filled me with both admiration and inspiration at what one can do if they set their minds to it. The history he weaves into this excursion is also educational, that I am sure most Americans are unfamiliar with. As we face many trials and tribulations in our own lives, especially during the maturation years, it seems the parenting skills these days, are less than desirable. Mr. Frontin's relationship with his sons, his strong desire to be the best father possible and his comparison of the Lord, the Almighty "Father" is such a refreshing outlook and one that all fathers should take heed. It is not just the 3 day canoe trip Glenn does with Dustin and Joshua, but his continued ability to be awed by nature, God's beautiful Creation, and share what he saw. His love and consideration for his wife and daughter are never far from his thoughts as he spends this cherished adventure with his sons. I am not a religious individual, but I found myself drawn to the biblical comparisons. It helped me realize how special the world around us is and saw how the teachings of God can and should reflect our actions and outcome. I read "a River Calling" on my own journey, as I travel extensively for work. I finished the book on one plane ride and as I waited for my connection, I purchased a Cross necklace that I proudly wore home.

A True Blessing That Flows From The Heart If you love American history, outdoor adventure and are a committed father in terms of raising your son(s) God's way, you won't want to miss this book. The author takes you on an unforgettable journey retracing the footsteps of Lewis and Clark with his own 2000 plus mile canoe adventure as a young man on the Missouri river in 1979 and later in life as a father with his own boys. Around every corner the author pours his heart out about his love of the outdoors, his country, his family and his own personal struggles as a man together with his wife charged with the most important responsibility in the world i.e. raising Godly children. As a parent who can relate to similar challenges in life I found that the book just draws you in.
