Description

If you've never seen an Eddie Stobart truck, you've never driven down a British motorway. This is the story of a multi-million pound business that spawned a middle-class motorway game. It details dynastic struggles that ended in a merchandising shop opposite Carlisle Cathedral and the entrepreneurial spirit that built the biggest road haulage business in Britain.
