Tornados, Rattlesnakes & Oil by Thomas E Cochrane
Meet a wildcatter whose back-in-the-day journey from the hills of New York, to the ice fields of Alaska, to the plains of the Midwest brings the reader along on this complex quest to SE underground. Here's an insider's look at the petroleum industry of the latter 20th century and what geologist Thomas E. Co chrane experienced along the way. From Oklahoma, to Texas, to rubbing elbows with iconic oilman T. Boone Pickens, his personal tales of the oil fields provide a firsthand glimpse into the art as well as the science of exploring and drilling all in the relentless pursuit of hitting the big one, every wildcatter's dream.
