Description

East Texas Motor Freight, iconically and fondly remembered as ETMF, is a symbol of what many would call the "romance" of the highway, the lure of the open road. So this book is a living history, the recounting of some of the most humorous and entertaining stories ever to come around the bend of a two-lane blacktop! Preserved on these pages is a treasure trove of anecdotes and recollections by the people who lived the trucking life. You will read stories that flow with the character and language of the people who were not only the custodians of the legends surrounding the development of trucking, but who were also an authentic part of the story itself. The people who birthed this freight line were using horses and wagons to haul freight long before gas-powered trucks became a daily reality. ETMF is representative, then, of the whole history of motor freight transportation as it developed on the surface of the land mass known as America.
