This is the story of one man's adventures in the Hamilton taxi business spanning the years from 1977 to 2018.
There is nothing particularly unique about my story. Every cab driver has his own. Not every cab driver gets around to writing a book about it.
Over the years I drove thousands of customers to their destinations. Most were happily satisfied with my service, if not downright euphoric.
While the stories told in this manuscript are derived from the way the taxi business operated in Hamilton, Ontario in those times, I am confident that any taxi driver, just about anywhere in the world will be able to relate to them.
Some will find my tactics in the trade disagreeable. Others will nod their heads knowingly. Politicians and their regulatory staffers will be outraged. They will certainly want to drag me in front of one of their tribunals to cancel my taxi driver's license and prohibit me from ever driving a cab again.
Too bad for them. I already quit.

Also available in French and German!
The vandals are not giving up.
