Good book for mineral owners as well as students,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Oil and Gas Law in a Nutshell (Nutshell Series) (Paperback)
The third edition of this book was very helpful, and also included more recent case law cites than the second edition. I would assume this it true with the fourth as well (and there have been quite a few post 1995 court cases affecting royalty payments among other things). John Lowe is a well-respected professor of oil and gas law and has written many papers as well as several books on the subject.I find his writing style easy to understand, even for a layman like myself.I also found it to be much more than a "nutshell" approach in that the explanations of complicated ideas are fairly complete in most cases. He even touches on the structure and content of oil and gas sales contracts near the end of the book, which I found helpful as well.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Great beginners book,
This review is from: Oil and Gas Law in a Nutshell (Paperback)
I am an oil and gas landman who does a lot of title and "HBP" work in the midcontinent area. This book is an invaluable reference for landmen working in this area or for someone who owns mineral rights. However, it is a primer. For a more in depth treatise on the subject I recommend Cases and Materials on Oil and Gas Law, 4th Ed. by John S. Lowe, et al. as it is much more in depth.

Excellent overview of oil & gas law,
By TX Lawyer (Dallas, TX) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Oil and Gas Law in a Nutshell (Paperback)
This is a must read for law students about to take an oil & gas final or for preparing for the Texas bar exam. The book assumes that you understand property interests and other basic property law concepts. I still have my book from law school in case I am confronted with an oil & gas issue in practice.
