A Spy on the Bus: Memoir of a Company Rat
by Margean Gladysz
“ There will never be another book like this. There simply could not be another Margean Gladysz, who as a young woman was paid by Greyhound, Trailways and other companies to ride buses thousands of miles all over the country in the 1940’s. She was there to spot and report back on drunk, stealing, reckless and nutty bus drivers who should be fired. And its all in her diary-like letters that she sent home at the time. A Spy on the Bus is a treat and a half. I promise.
”
