About this book

Oil has powered more than machines—it has powered empires, wars, and the modern world itself. Oil Wars and Pipelines: How Energy Shaped the Modern Era traces the turbulent history of petroleum from its discovery to its dominance as the engine of global politics. Through gripping accounts of conflicts, secret deals, and monumental engineering projects, the book reveals how pipelines and oilfields became both lifelines and battlegrounds. It connects the rise of industrial powers, the geopolitics of the Middle East, and the shifting alliances of the twenty‑first century to the single, volatile commodity at their core. This is the story of how energy built the modern era—and how dependence on it continues to define our world.
