Summary
In "Oil and Empires" we look at the history of the region, its repeated conquest, and the bloody wars that have been fought to control it. From the time of Alexander through the present era, Greeks, Persians, Arabs, Mongols, and Turks have fought for domination. The 20th century saw the European powers consolidate their grip on the area only to eventually cede control, while over the last 50 years the world's ever-rising need for oil has drawn the United States deeper into the affairs of the region. This is the story of those operations told through veteran accounts, informative maps, and dramatic combat footage
