Russell Gold is an award-winning investigative journalist at The Wall Street Journal. Gold's reporting has taken him to five continents and above the Arctic Circle two times. In 2010, he was part of the award-winning Wall Street Journal team that covered the Deepwater Horizon explosion and oil spill. His first book, The Boom, was longlisted for the FT Goldman Sachs Business Book of the year prize in 2014. He lives in Austin, Texas with his wife and two children.
"Russell Gold's The Boom is a double quest. He tells the story of the biggest innovation in energy so far in this century-the shale gas revolution. He captures the personalities, and the drama and surprises, and brings clarity to the debate about the environmental impact-and what it means for the U.S. economy and "energy independence." But it's also a more personal story - about "The Farm" in rural Pennsylvania where he spent time as a child, and his quest to understand what is happening in this new age of shale gas."
