Synopsis

Father; Son is a tender and powerful exploration of legacy, memory, and love across generations.

This unique collection brings together the poetry of John Harvey Isaacks; a U.S. Marine, husband, father, and man of quiet strength—with the reflections, vignettes, and stories of his son, David Isaacks. What emerges is more than a book; it is a conversation between father and son, carried across time in words, lessons, and lived experiences.

Through John’s original poems; at once raw, searching, and deeply human; we glimpse a father’s heart. Through David’s stories, we see how those words found their way into daily life: behind the wheel of an old tractor, on late-night camp roads, in the silence of a workshop, and in the promises a Marine father passed down to his son.

From small details like a green address book or a lawn mower’s crooked lines, to life-defining moments of love, loss, and resilience, Father; Son reveals the ways ordinary things become extraordinary when seen through the lens of legacy.

This book is for anyone who has been shaped by a father’s voice; whether spoken in poems, whispered in caution, or remembered in moments long after he is gone. It is at once a tribute, a memoir, and a guide for finding meaning in the echoes left behind.

If you have ever longed for one more conversation with someone you’ve loved, Father; Son will remind you: their words are still here, waiting to be heard.
