Description
A Century of War: Anglo-American Oil Politics and the New World Order by F. William Engdahl This book explores the complex and often hidden history of oil politics and their impact on global events. From the late 19th century to the present day, Engdahl reveals how the control of oil has shaped the course of world history, including the events leading up to World War I and the Middle East conflicts that continue to this day. Through a detailed examination of key events and figures, Engdahl sheds light on the secret origins of the post-1973 oil shocks, the rise of the Petro-dollar, and the role of the CIA in shaping global politics. This is a story about power and its far-reaching consequences for entire nations and continents. By understanding the intricate web of oil politics, readers can gain a deeper insight into the complex forces that shape our world today.
