Description
Oil is not pretty, but it is a resource that drives the modern world. Without it, life as we know it today would be impossible. It fuels our engines, heats our homes, and powers the machines that make the everyday things we take for granted. This book explores what oil is, where it comes from, and the role it has played in America and the world.
