"Keystone and Beyond: Tar Sands and the National Interest in the Era of Climate Change" provides the definitive account of the Keystone XL saga. The book upends the national debate over the controversial pipeline, tracing its origins to energy policy decisions made by President George W. Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney in the first months of their administration, and to expectations about energy supply and demand that have turned out to be wrong. Using thousands of pages of official documents, studies by experts and advocates, and contemporaneous news reports, former New York Times reporter John Cushman Jr. shows how the pipeline that George W. Bush considered a “no brainer” is now seen as a test of President Barack Obama’s commitment to act on climate change.
