Shows how the American stake in Saudi Arabian oil challenged the US to create closer ties with the Saudi kingdom, compelling the move from isolation to involvement with the Middle East. Miller describes the growing awareness of the strategic importance of Saudi Arabia, US shrinking oil reserves and the focusing of America on gaining access to the king's oil.
