About this Item

The story of the pioneers pushing into America's last frontier - straight down. A vividly human cross-section of America's most dynamic industry - oil. Inscribed "Sept. 16, 1955 For Gov. Edward C. Johnson - Here's how it is: John Mullins, your friend, wants you to have this book, and so he is the one who is giving it to you. But even so, and no matter what John may say to me later about it, I do feel I have a right to horn in on his gift somehow like this, and express my own best wishes to you also, there in that hospital, and do get well right away! - Max Miller La Jolla, California". Johnson was a many term Colorado State Governor. Max Miller was a reporter for the San Diego Sun. Miller is best known for his book I COVER THE WATERFRONT (1932), the first of nearly twenty books on subjects including the modern U.S. military, Southern California, and Baja California (Mexico).
