Very good. Connecting readers with great books since 1972! Used books may not include companion materials, and may have some shelf wear or limited writing. We ship orders daily and Customer Service is our top priority!
A fast, easy read that makes you appreciate "big oil" for a change. Thought provoking thesis: the story of what has to be done to provide Americans with the fuel we need is greatly underestimated, unappreciated and seldom understood. Until now. This book goes a long way to clear up misconceptions the petroleum path takes from exploration, refinement,regulation to final consumption.
