Description: About this productProduct InformationPulitzer Prize Winner -- and Now an Epic PBS Series The Prize recounts the panoramic history of oil -- and the struggle for wealth power that has always surrounded oil. This struggle has shaken the world economy, dictated the outcome of wars, and transformed the destiny of men and nations. The Prize is as much a history of the twentieth century as of the oil industry itself. The canvas of this history is enormous -- from the drilling of the first well in Pennsylvania through two great world wars to the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait and Operation Desert Storm. The cast extends from wildcatters and rogues to oil tycoons, and from Winston Churchill and Ibn Saud to George Bush and Saddam Hussein. The definitive work on the subject of oil and a major contribution to understanding our century, The Prize is a book of extraordinary breadth, riveting excitement -- and great importance.Product IdentifiersPublisherSimon & SchusterISBN-100671502484ISBN-139780671502485eBay Product ID (ePID)1375102Product Key FeaturesBook TitlePrize : the Epic Quest for Oil, Money and PowerAuthorDaniel YerginFormatHardcoverLanguageEnglishTopicHistory / Military & Wars, WORLD / General, General, PetroleumPublication Year1991GenreTechnology & Engineering, Business & Economics, History, Juvenile Nonfiction, Political ScienceNumber of Pages912 PagesDimensionsItem Weight46.2 OzAdditional Product FeaturesLc Classification NumberHd9560.6.Y47 1990Copyright Date1991Lccn90-047575Dewey Decimal338.2/7/282/0904Dewey Edition21IllustratedYes
