Biodiesel America

Our tale begins more than 100 years ago with Rudolf Diesel’s invention of an engine running on vegetable oil and carries us through to modern times where energy security is a major concern and many of us are trying to decrease our dependence on foreign oil. Biodiesel is not only the way of the future, it is well grounded in the past. Joshua Tickell crafts a book that weaves the history of America’s relationship with oil together with a plan for the future and steps we can take to change that relationship. Tickell has created a book few can afford to not read. 356 pages, hardcover. USA.
