It's 200,000+ word, thoroughly researched, detailed, and surprisingly interesting and readable history of the oil industry. There's a whole bunch of shit about the oil industry you don't know or comprehend if you haven't read this book.

Blast. Less money than US land, but good experience. One of these days I'll write a short story that won't be rejected from /lit/ magazine.
