Read it:

The United States, 1907 to 2001. Three men decide, separately, that the expensive part of moving something is not the moving. Jim Casey starts a messenger service in a Seattle basement at nineteen and spends fifty years turning a bicycle errand into a delivery network nobody notices. Malcom McLean, a North Carolina trucker who has spent his working life waiting at docks, buys a steamship line in order to put truck bodies on it, and in doing so empties the working waterfront of every port city in the world. Frederick Smith flies a single night's freight through one airport in Memphis on the theory that the shortest way between two points is through a third. Each is told the idea is uneconomic. Each is, for a while, right. Covers James E. Casey, Malcom McLean, Frederick W. Smith, United Parcel Service, and Federal Express.
