Description
BLOW OUT: In Plain Sight, BP Deepwater Horizon: Cover-up in the Gulf uncovers a treasure trove of U.S. Government research that has been collecting dust on the shelves of the MMS offices for the past thirty years. This information has been kept under wraps in plain sight and used in an unintentional bungling governmental campaign of misdirection and misinformation. Jack allows the reader to draw their own conclusions as he takes them through the science of oil spill remediation while along the way sharing a wealth of interesting facts that one might not expect in a book about off-shore oil drilling. This book has it all from Hurricanes, Pirates, and Shipwrecks to Laser Beams, Nuclear Fission, and the Politics of Big Oil. Inside you will find a compilation of U.S. Government research that is mind boggling in scope. Jam-packed with color photographs, shot by the men and women of the US Coast Guard and other government agencies who were there on the scene to witness the event, this is one book you will definitely wish to have in your library.
