What these men did and the courage they displayed goes well beyond that of the Alaskan king crab fisherman, which recently has been touted repeatedly by the Discovery Channel as the world's most dangerous job. It makes TV's Ice Road Truckers look like children playing on a Slip 'n Slide. There is no doubt about it; civilian combat truck drivers in the Middle East have the most dangerous job in the world. Their story has been largely untold until now. I find myself in a unique position. I was a civilian combat truck driver and I can write. Bad Roads for Good Men is a novel about the men who did the job in 2006 and 2007 during the height of the insurgency in Iraq. I know the nitty of it. I know the gritty of it. I know the ins and the outs. Bad Roads for Good Men takes you there.
