Synopsis

With over 40 years on the marketing side of the oil and gas industry, Jeff Miller has written hundreds of humorous, insightful, and sometimes controversial articles about the fuel that powers America. With his signature wit, he takes a look at everything oil, from powering cruise ships with human gas from their buffets, to cars powered by sneezes, and even how the 2016 election turned some of the most conservative oil folks into closet liberals. In his book, Miller has compiled some of his most popular articles, humor pieces, and personality profiles for your enjoyment.

From the Back Cover

With over 40 years in marketing communications, most of that in the energy industry, Jeff Miller decided to devote most of his time to writing.Three years ago, he and his wife sold their home in Houston and moved to a lake house on Lake Livingston, about an hour and a half north of Houston, but far enough away from the big city that he can fish, swim, smoke cigars, and drink single malt Scotch without worrying about stray bullets. Jeff is also certified by the Department of Homeland Security and Michigan State University in Incident Management and Crisis Communications. His writing has won numerous awards over the years, and in addition to writing about oil and gas, he is also a playwright as well as a director/actor for community theatre.
