2.The Prize: The Epic Quest for Oil, Money and PowerThe Prize: The Epic Quest for Oil, Money & Power
from Free Press
Price: $11.92

Customer Review:
History's back story (and often its lead story) is well crafted and documented as Yergin takes the readers from the oilfields of Titusville up until the first Gulf War (in the version I read). It is very long but well worth the effort.

Price: $12.47

Customer Review:
I loved how far the book ranged, how it touches on all of the things that the price of gasoline affects. It's truly amazing how our world will be changed as the price of gas goes up.

from Random House
Price: $10.95

Customer Review:
If you enjoy history and geopolitics you will like this book. Levine spends a good third of the book on the history of oil in the region. So if you've read the Prize by Yergin, you would have probably come across the same stuff. Where this book get's interesting is in the 1980s and the post-Soviet... more info

9.Small Gas Engine RepairSmall Gas Engine Repair
from McGraw-Hill Professional
Price: $20.00

Customer Review:
Although I am far from expert in small gas engine repair, I just can't understand all the positive buzz about this book. It is far from a reference work, being barely 200 pages of text, in small format. Frankly, other than some basic pointers on piston, crank, and valve replacement -- which are... more info
