IMPRESSIVE. METICULOUS. Black’s impressive analysis, which included looking at more than 50,000 original documents and hundreds of scholarly books and articles … explains why the West’s record in the region so complicates nation-building there today. – Richard A. Clarke, Washington Post Book World
POWERFUL. EVOCATIVE. TAUT. Edwin Black’s powerful new study is solid and evocative throughout. For those interested in business history, his study of the relationship between commercial and political interests, especially the company that eventually became British Petroleum, is well worth the price of admission. There’s also ample material to draw from to consider the future path of Iraq … Black is committed, if not obsessed, with hyper-intensive research and documentation. His books are copiously footnoted
CORRUPTION AND MACHINATIONS. The story of petroleum and oil exploration should be one of entrepreneurial glory. Instead, the more we learn about the corruption and machinations employed by British Petroleum and its industry cohorts, the more we realize that we have been the victims of an addictive, war-made subjugation for over 100 years. – Marc J.
