About this ebook
This is an unvarnished look at the trucking world as seen through the eyes of one who experienced it. It especially applies to the area of trucking known as “Long-Haul”, for that is what the author was for a long time.
This is not a “pretty” book, nor is it “politically correct”, as it speaks of the raw realities that are, and not those things we wish them to be. The drivers face these head-on, alone, and if they didn’t, you would have to. Upon reading this, you should have a much better understanding of why there are trucker’s resistance movements in both Canada and the United States. As one driver phrased it when hearing that this was in the works, “Please hurry. We are dying out here.”
However, it does have large doses of the humor that he needs, to survive in this strange world where few others can.
