Spindletop: The True Story of the Oil Discovery That Changed the World by James A. Clark, 1st edition, 1952. Random House. SIGNED by both authors. Very good condition, NO defects, marks, writing, underlining, or highlighting.
January 10, 1901 - a momentous day in history. At 10:30 in the morning the first great American gusher "roared in like a shot from a heavy cannon and spouted oil a hundred feet over the top of the derrick out on the hummock that the world would soon know as Spindletop." Overnight the town of Beaumont, Texas became a bedlam. The population doubled and doubled again."
"Spindletop is the true story of the oil discovery that changed the world - of the events leading up to it and the boom days that followed. It is a tale of men against odds, and the incidents that molded men and ideas together to form the nucleus of the modern oil industry. The story is brought vividly alive by its colorful portraits of the men who played a part in this great adventure."
