Rose George
Author of The Big Necessity
Freight is the invisible engine behind every shelf, factory, and delivery window. Rose George goes inside container ships, ports, and the people who keep global trade moving — most of it unseen by the businesses that depend on it.
For carriers, suppliers, and operators on Alpha Freight, this book reframes what we do: not just moving boxes, but holding together supply chains the world rarely notices until something breaks.
