Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1949, almost fifteen years after the first oil well was discovered by a group of American wildcatters on the Eastern Arabian Peninsula, the Arabian American Oil Company (Aramco) ramped up its public relations campaign by launching a company house magazine with a strong photographic program. The publication, Aramco World Magazine, was initially produced out of the New York office as a way to communicate company activities to employees. As the decade progressed, the magazine expanded its scope to serve a broader audience, covering trivia about the Middle East, world events, lifestyle tips, and, of course, oil operations.
