Synopsis
Excerpt from Petroleum: Its History, Occurrence, Production, Uses and Tests
This little book is intended to give real information concern ing some of these matters and to give this information within a small compass, so that those who read it will not be discour aged by the prospect of wading through a large volume filled with statistics and tables. It is hoped that the book will be readily understood by young people of high school age, and yet not too childish to prove of value to those of more mature age, who have never known much about the modern petroleum industry.
Those who wish to go further into this interesting subject are referred to the bibliography given at the back of this book.
Great care has been used to prevent errors, but doubtless some have occurred, and the author would greatly appreciate it if his readers would notify him of any errors they may no tice, so that they may be corrected in a future edition.
