The sixth foreign-language translation of CRUDE will be released this week. The Dutch version is called “Ongeraffineerd,” which I love for being so very much longer than the English version.
Apparently, there’s been a lot of interest in the book in Holland. A magazine called Greenpeace Krant, with a circulation of 500,000, is featuring the book, and the Dutch equivalent of the Financial Times (Financieele Dagblad) will, too. I wrote a new chapter for this edition, focusing on Holland’s fascinating petro-history. I’m looking forward to a flood of provocative feedback from Dutch readers. Stay tuned for more.
