NY, Simon & Schuster, 1991. Winner of the Pulitzer Prize. Yergin's bestselling history of the petroleum industry, with its ties to power, geopolitics, economic stability and regional peace or the lack thereof, was aided in its popularity by its release date, coming just months after Iraq's invasion of Kuwait and one month prior to U.S. involvement. Signed by the author. Fine in a fine, price-clipped dust jacket. Uncommon signed and in the first printing. [#036655] SOLD
