520 1 $a"In 1973, the United States and other western countries were shocked by the Arab oil embargo: lines formed at gasoline pumps; fuel stations ran out of supply; prices skyrocketed; and the nation realized its vulnerability to decisions made by leaders of countries half a world away." "In response, the U.S. Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR), signed into law by President Gerald Ford in 1975, has become the nations primary tool of energy policy. After years of delay and frustration, the reserve was sufficiently stocked and operationally ready to help enhance American energy security by the late 1980s. Following its first major use during the Persian Gulf War of 1991, officials and policy makers at the highest levels increasingly turned to the SPR to stave off shortages and mitigate rising energy prices." "Author and historian Bruce A. Beaubouef examines, for the first time, the interactions of business and government officials, consumers, and even foreign governments that have shaped the development of the SPR. He makes the case that the SPR has survived because it is a passive regulatory tool, dictating neither the price nor the flow of oil."--BOOK JACKET.
