Second Fatherland: The Life and Fortunes of a German Immigrant
ISBN: 9781585440610 / Angielski / Miękka Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Max Krueger came to Texas from Germany in 1868, a penniless, delicate boy of sixteen.

Krueger vividly recalls the violence--the murderous "Helena duel," brutal Indian massacres, and his own narrow escape in a cattleman's war--and also the splendor and abundance of an unspoiled land, the thrill of a mustang or buffalo hunt, the danger of the stampede, and the simple pleasure of the campfire...

King of the Wildcatters

His office was his car during his early days of wildcatting the Mid-Continent oil field around 1910. And even after great success brought him to posher surroundings in an Oklahoma City office suite, his style remained hands-on. His impromptu deals were often brokered on street corners and over pay phones in his typical laconic style. Well into the 1920s he was the last of a breed who had no stock holders or board members to answer to, and instead "worked out of his hip pocket."
