About this ebook
A funny account of a fictional transport company in which the author confronts the ups and downs of owner-operators during the difficult years of the 1970s and 80s. Trucker Dennis Richardson sets up a transport company with two pals. Benny is the one with the short fuse; Rich tries to calm him down - when he's not winding him up.
