About the Book

"In July of 1990 Ted Atcheson returned to Saudi Arabia and his job with the oil giant ARAMCO.

Saddam Hussein unleashed a brutal invasion of tiny Kuwait and the world trembled with the thought of his world domination of the rich oil fields of the Middle East. Follow Ted as he and his colleagues work to keep the oil fi elds open while supporting the troops."
