Rate this book
Drumright was a pinup girl from the minute she was born. They took her picture when Tom Slick knew he had a discovery bonanza in the Wheeler No. 1 Oil Well, and roped it off with armed guards to protest its secrecy. This well became known as the 10 Million Dollar Well, and word of its discovery went round the world.
