"In the spring of 2004, Philip Anders ingested the first of what would be a daily dose of 4mg estrogen tablets. From that moment forward, his life would change forever.
During the agonizingly slow transformation from male to female, he would lose a 22-year career in journalism, his marriage, his home, his savings, and most of his friends. Faced with the specter of homelessness, he embarked on a three-year adventure as an over-the-road truck driver.
Gypsy Moon chronicles Pamela Rose Anders' travels across the highways of America, as well as the single most difficult journey of all; transitioning from a male to female truck driver. Packed with a medley of humorous adventures, moments of fear, loneliness and despair, terrifying encounters, bigotry, and unexpected friendships, Gypsy Moon presents an insightful view of the incredible courage and strength required to complete this journey. You will laugh. You will cry. You will feel her anguish. You will revel in her triumph. Most of all, you will understand."
