OIL HISTORY is the definitive guide to the romance, history & lore of the global petroleum business. The oilfield's past was wild & woolly, a time of greed, guts, glory & goofups. A lot has been written about those colorful days of yesteryear, from the old ("Venango Oil Regions", 1866) to the new ("The Prize", 1991). OIL HISTORY reviews 810 titles of enormous variety. Look at just the long & the short of it: The encyclopedic ("A Brief History of the Pennsylvania Oil Region," 652 pages) to the terse ("We Drilled Spindletop," 37 pages). Author, publisher, length, date of publication are also provided. The extensive index will help readers find titles by either author or subject. No matter what your interest in the history of the worldwide petroleum business, it's represented in this unique volume. Published in hardcover, the 6-inch by 9-inch OILFIELD HISTORY is handsomely cloth-bound in royal blue with distinguished silver lettering. Order from IADC Publications, P.O.
