3.0 out of 5 stars
Dated, but accurate early 80s boom portraits of Texans,
By Kenter Canyon (Austin, Texas) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Wildcatters (Paperback)
Author Helgeson, a Harper's magazine contributor spent a year in 1979 interviewing the three generations of surviving Texas "wildcat" independent oil producers and delivers a servicable book about men such as "Monty" Moncrief, Clint Murchison, and Sid Richardson and their post WW2 offspring who continued the practice of exploration without conglomerate sanction. If you want a snapshot of the indie oil & gas business circa 1980, this will do. Reads like an expanded feature magazine article, which is appropriate to the subject.
