The Prize by Daniel Yergin

The Prize by Daniel Yergin

Yergin tells the history of the last hundred and fifty years through oil, on the grounds that almost nothing about the modern world makes sense without it — not the world wars, not the Middle East, not the shape of the American century.

Rockefeller and the building of Standard Oil, the Rothschilds and the Nobels in Baku, the scramble for Persia, the tanker war of 1942, the founding of OPEC, the 1973 embargo and the price shocks, and finally Kuwait. It is nine hundred pages and it reads like a thriller because the personalities are extraordinary.

Winner of the Pulitzer Prize. Widely considered the best single book on the modern world economy.
