Magnificent Marginal Men is a nonfiction memoir about the unique, and often wild, life of a long-haul moving man. Told in twenty-nine short stories, the book profiles a rugged subculture and its unforgettable inhabitants who drive and thrive on the margins of society. The book details what happens when a man with a degree in philosophy decides that he “would not survive a regular career in a box full of people,” and sets out in Snowbird, one of the most beautiful, elegant and biggest tractor trailers of her time. With her sparkling orange and gray paint job, polished aluminum wheels, chrome front bumper and tall exhaust stacks, Snowbird is a “splendid time machine, a ship of the American highways.” To say that the book is a quintessentially American tale of grit, adventure and danger is all true, but underneath the exciting surface is a deeply felt story of the human heart and how what we do shapes what we become.
