Join Hugh on his hilarious adventures in the UK haulage industry in the 1970s and 80s. From securing his truck license on a disused airfield to traversing the country on colourful escapades, Hugh recounts rollicking tales with unforgettable characters. We follow Hugh through a whirlwind of trucking jobs, from the docks of Watchet to the remotest corners of Scotland. Laugh along as he fumbles his way as a rookie and gains wisdom from wizened veterans. Hugh sheds light on seldom-seen slices of British life, whether struggling through blizzards or protecting his virtue from overtures by an amorous Spanish policeman. With sharp wit and captivating storytelling, Hugh chronicles the trucker's lot: gruelling but rewarding work peppered with uproarious mishaps and camaraderie. His adventures barrel on through faltering family businesses, runaway cargoes, and navigating narrow country lanes in oversized rigs. Hugh takes it all in stride, with plenty of hijinks along the way. Strap yourself in for a rollicking ride packed with distinctly British humour and characters so colourful you'll never forget them. Hugh's memoir offers a glimpse of a hard-working but light-hearted era through one intrepid trucker's escapades on the road.
Ruth The Moabitess is a book written by Hugh Anderson in 1849. The book is a retelling of the biblical story of Ruth, a Moabite woman who becomes the ancestor of King David and Jesus Christ. The story follows Ruth as she leaves her homeland of Moab with her mother-in-law Naomi after the death of her husband. Ruth's loyalty and devotion to Naomi lead her to Bethlehem, where she meets and marries Boaz, a wealthy landowner. The book explores themes of loyalty, faith, and redemption, as well as the cultural differences between the Israelites and the Moabites. Anderson's retelling of Ruth's story is a faithful and engaging adaptation of the biblical narrative, offering readers a deeper understanding of one of the most beloved stories in the Old Testament.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
