True Tales from a Legendary Ice Road Trucker

Inside one of the world's most dangerous jobs with the star of History's top-rated reality show, Ice Road Truckers.

The highest-rated reality show ever to hit the History channel, Ice Road Truckers follows the heart-pounding adventures of the tough-as-nails truckers who risk peril every day to deliver goods and supplies in Alaska and across Canada's frozen north.

Thank You, Alex!!

Pretty much a biography of Alex. The last 2 1/2 to 3 hours that were more focused on his trucking career were very enjoyable.

Good story, bad title

Good story teller, the title is a bit misleading. Most of the book was long before Alex ever got in a truck.

down to earth.

Alex is one of my favorite drivers from IRT and he book has given me even more respect for him. this is a funny and uplifting book. highly recommend it.

Awesome Book.
