The Long Haul : American Trucking Companies

This book is a concise history of the pioneers in trucking and how they grew their truck empires. Most of the companies started out very small regionally and with acquisitions and mergers became the big names in trucking hauling all over America. Each company includes a history, maps of their truck lines at an epochal point in their history, and a photo or more of their fleet or rigs they used in the classic era of the 1950s-1970s.
