The tale of the Bechtel family dynasty is a classic American business story. It begins with Warren A. "Dad" Bechtel, who led a consortium that constructed the Hoover Dam. From that auspicious start, the family and its eponymous company would go on to build the world, from the construction of airports in Hong Kong and Doha to pipelines and tunnels in Alaska and Europe to mining and energy operations around the globe.

Just the facts
Revisado: 06-20-21
Many reviews state the author presents bias; however, my interpretation of the author's tone is one of neutrality–she is presenting only facts.
RE: the reviews concerning political entanglement–
Yes, this is difficult to follow, but again, the author is presenting only facts, there is no leaning in any political direction.
The author has done a wonderful job of researching a very private company and presenting a clear image of how it became entwined with the government. Worth the time investment.
