Then Came Oil: The Story of the Last Frontier by C.B. Glasscock is a fascinating account of the discovery and development of oil in Alaska. The book tells the story of how oil exploration began in the early 20th century and how it transformed Alaska from a remote and isolated territory into a major player in the global oil industry. Glasscock provides detailed information about the key players involved in the oil boom, including the oil companies, government officials, and native Alaskans. He also explores the environmental impact of oil drilling and the complex political and economic issues that surrounded the development of Alaska's oil resources. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of Alaska, the oil industry, or the intersection of politics and business.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
