Highway America - The Adventures of a Kiwi Truck Driver

Highway America is a must-read trucking adventure and travel guide for anyone wanting to drive across America or work as an interstate trucker. Peter Blakeborough, a native of New Zealand, lives in the sleeper-cab and recounts his life on the road with humor and graphic detail. On his first solo delivery (no GPS) he travels 800 miles from Little Rock to Toledo, takes a load of Honda bikes to Florida, then chemicals to Pennsylvania – and right into a dead-end with nowhere to turn around his 70 foot rig. A journey from Iowa to Arizona is halted abruptly in the desert while the temperature is over 100° F. But for this driver/writer it’s all part of the adventure. You won’t put Highway America down until it’s finished.
