SUMMARY

In light of the importance of oil and gas in California, perhaps the discovery of gold there should be viewed as just a flash in the pan. By 1938, the cumulative value of all the gold found in the state stood at something more than two billion dollars, while the cumulative value of the oil and gas produced was more than double that sum--well over five billion dollars. The story of California oil deserves to be told, and pictures tell it best.Franks, Kenny A. is the author of 'Early California Oil: A Photographic History, 1865-1940' with ISBN 9780890962060 and ISBN 0890962065.
