Description

In February 1968, the rumors became reality: An ARCO drilling rig has struck oil — numerous oil — on Alaska’s remote North Slope. Jack Roderick’s story of oil and politics in Alaska reads like a novel as he tells of the risky, expensive, and most commonly frustrating seek for oil around the Northland. Oil companies watch one every other jealously. Small independents and the brand new state struggle to share within the action dominated by huge multi-national oil companies. Gov. Bill Egan, the shy grocer from Valdez, stands as much as the industry, looking for the largest conceivable share of oil revenues for Alaskans.
