Few people realise that the search for oil in South Africa goes back nearly 100 years to 1873. In this up-to-minute and carefully documented volume, Eric Rosenthal not only tells many entertaining stories of past efforts but has worked in conjunction with Soeker, who have organised the first really comprehensive search for oil in the country. The tale is carried right up to the spectacular off-shore natural gas strike near Plettenberg Bay. This book will fascinate not only the experts but those countless South Africans who hope their country will soon be self-supporting in this most vital of fuels.
