Black Tide: The Santa Barbara Oil Spill and Its Consequences
(When offshore well A-21 blew out, it started a chain of e...)
When offshore well A-21 blew out, it started a chain of events that reached the highest level of government, and repercussions persist to this day. The Black Tide that endangered the California coast was slowly and agonizingly checked, and then the long job of salvage began. This is more than an ecology book - it is powerful drama and proof that with courage and perseverance the community can prevail. This story of people in crisis, of politics and power, and of greed versus a community's rights, comes at a time when oil companies contemplate drilling off every coast. All concerned Americans can profit by the lesson of Santa Barbara.
