Book Review: Thicker than Oil Saudi Arabia and the US

Book by By Rachel Bronson

Review from Amazon

“A thoughtful history of U.S.-Saudi relations. It challenges the common characterization of the relationship as a bargain in which the Saudis provide easy access to oil in exchange for U.S. security guarantees.”–Foreign Affairs
“This is the most solid book to date on the vital relationship between the U.S. and Saudi Arabia, with important new historical material and a hard-headed look at our tough policy choices for the future.”–Leslie H. Gelb, President Emeritus, The Council on Foreign Relations
“Well researched…. The best sections of her impressively researched book explain the complexity and ambition of joint U.S.-Saudi undertakings against communist governments and guerrilla movements during the Cold War — not only in Afghanistan…but also in the Middle East, Africa and Central America…. A reliable, efficient book that policymakers and regional analysts will find useful.”–Steve Coll, Washington Post Book
