Frank White started writing the story of his life as a pioneer BC truck driver in 1974 when he was only sixty, his career of wrangling tiny trucks overloaded with huge logs down steep mountains with no brakes. Memories of a Pioneer Truck Driver...


his first story won the Canadian Media Club award for Best Magazine Feature and everyone urged him to write more. 

He started in his spare time but kept having so many new adventures he didn't finish until he was 100 years old. He set out to tell the story of his life in transportation, starting in the horse and buggy age and chronicling the growth of trucking in the BC freighting and logging industries

Those were collected and made into this book

Damn right I just ordered myself a copy
