Historia
Lengthy investigations revealed cover ups, covert operations, reckless corporate management, numerous safety violations, and a broken regulatory process. At the time of the spill, oil flowed through the Alyeska pipeline at a profit of $400,000 per hour, yet in the end, the 10,000 fishermen affected by the spill spent nearly 20 years in litigation and received little compensation for their losses. Despite a massive cleanup effort, oil remains on the beaches and continues to impact marine life.

It is was an engrossing read/lisen.

The book did an excellent job of personalizing the Valdez Oil Spill, while at the same time illustrating the scale of the disaster. While most may think this spill happened in Alaska, the entire US felt it and the legal ramifications from it. This book fully illustrated all of that.
