First define your path or drive by digging a 12" to 15" swath the length of the driveway. Use 2" minus(size of the gravel as a "base layer" , a 12" depth run for example ,this course can be 8" deep. Then add 1" minus, 3" inches deep, the final layer would be crushed rock 1" deep. You can define the edges of the driveway with flexible land scape borders spiked into place. You can always line the bare bottom with landscape fabric and spread cement dust over the top layer of the gravel for best results. Rent a backhoe and you can get this done in a full weekends work.
