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.
