"How did the Koch Brothers become the Koch Brothers? The oil-company heirs had
long held small-government, anti-regulation beliefs, but weren't always deeply
enmeshed in the political world—until 1988, when the U.S Senate began looking
into allegations their company was stealing oil from Indian reservations in
Oklahoma.
For his new book,
KOCHLAND, author Christopher Leonard unearthed the full
story of what happened, from the workers under-reporting their oil pickups to
the network of front groups, training centers and political operatives that the
Kochs built to fend off the investigation—and which today have come to be both
respected and feared in American politics."
