(Middle East - Iraq) Piping Petroleum In Iraq, Anon., 1939 It was in Iraq that oil was probably first used by humans to make their boats waterproof. Here, after the "Great War" was over, focus returned with a new intensity on how to get the ancient resource across to the Mediterranean and a energy hungry Europe. This amazing set of illustrations summarizes how to physically move the oil, step by step, including with a small map of pipeline routes, and an elevation profile reaching from Haditha, to Haifa. Condition is very good. Image size is approximately 13.5 x 20.5 (inches)
