Oil Powers: A History of the U.S.-Saudi Alliance
Victor McFarland
Victor McFarland challenges the view that the U. S.-Saudi alliance is the inevitable consequence of American energy demand and Saudi Arabia’s huge oil reserves. Oil Powers traces the growth of the alliance through a dense web of political, economic, and social connections that bolstered royal and executive power and the national-security state.
