Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Some call interstate truckers "the knights of the road." Others groan when they're behind a long line of huge 18-wheelers on the roads we all travel. But what's it like to BE a trucker? And what's it like to be a husband-and-wife team out on those highways, year after year, carrying the goods that we all use in our homes and at work? What are the pressures and rewards of their work? In Two Million Miles, John and Virginia Logan tell their stories. Some, like coping with cops in rush-hour Washington, D.C. traffic, bring a laugh. Others, like the experience of hitting sheer ice while driving a heavy load down a steep and curving mountain road, make you see why truckers have to be well-trained for their work. Still other stories show John Logan's keen interest in his surroundings and Virginia Logan's courage in breaking the stereotype that 'trucking is a guy-thing.' At the end, you'll see that these two truckers are hard-working individuals, doing their jobs with skill and care, getting their loads in on time while still helping out other drivers and enjoying the endlessly varying landscapes of America.
