It's Never Too Late to Top Your Personal Best.
Both a riveting account of a life spent pulling off improbable
triumphs and a report back from the front of the global-energy and
natural-resource wars, "The First Billion Is the Hardest" tells the
story of the remarkable late-life comeback that brought the famed
oilman and maverick back from bankruptcy and clinical depression.
Along the way, the man often called the "Oracle of Oil" shares the
insights that have made him a legend-and describes the
billion-dollar bets he is now making in hopes of securing America's
energy independence.
