The Great Texas Oil Heist (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781622884025)

"In The Great Texas Oil Heist Robert Cargill tells the story of the

slant-hole drilling scandal of the 1960s with both the thoroughness

and the verve it deserves. Impeccably researched and

clearly written, this work is a well told and compelling tale of

how politics, geology, money, and human nature combined to

create a uniquely Texan scandal and how it was finally broken

up. Cargill has done a service by shining a bright light on this

long-running episode of criminality that has been talked about

but never before explored in such meticulous detail."
